The Baltimore Book of the Dead | 
The only consolations of Alzheimer‘s, and they are small indeed, it that it doesn‘t hurt much, and that once the full nightmare is under way, you are long gone.

Haunted Arizona
The Shadow of the Wind
❓ What do you suggest?
pickLoved it. Short 1-2 page memories of people in her life who passed. Really sweet, very thoughtful and helps you think about how you will be remembered. How you remember those who passed. Even though these are quick, you can feel the impact of each loss. How she considered each and every person so thoughtfully. Really beautiful.

First read for this readathon. I‘ve already started it but I‘ll finish it probably over lunch at work tomorrow. After that I think I‘ll dive into When You Read This.
The anniversary of my husbands death is coming up. When it first happened I dove head first into grief memoirs. Now that we‘re coming up on 1 year, I‘m back to reading about death. If anyone has any good grief, death, or dying recommendations, please send! Can be fiction or non.
1. Don‘t really have a favorite. I‘ll go with Memoirs for this
2. Jami Attenberg
3. Shadow in the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zagreb
4. Steampunk

pickMorbid and moving, grief-filled and gorgeous, this is a tiny book of lovely remembrance. Can't wait to meet the author later this month! I'll definitely be reading her prevous books!
The author is coming to the store later this month, but I boughtthe book last month just becauseof the title and the tiny hardback size. It's really lovely and poignant so far!
pickThis is a tentative pick. This is an interesting concept of relating her life through short descriptions of people in her life who have died. The author is a poet and there are some great, quotable phrases throughout. It‘s impressive how she is able to create a vivid portrait of a person in just a few paragraphs. 3.5⭐️ Available on #Hoopla
