Welcome to Litsy!

#WickedWhispers Day 5: Fairy tales would always have its fair share of monsters and #Cadavers. My review is forthcoming. 💕

Gothic mystery and romance. Hazel wants to be a surgeon. Jack is a resurrection man. There are lots of #cadavers in this series.

I read this a few years ago for #AuthorAMonth. It‘s informative and clever - Roach is one-of-a-kind

A very interesting nonfiction story!

On the whole, Stiff has held up well, and remains an excellent read for anyone who‘s curious about the macabre (or simply has the stomach for the more gruesome aspects of medical history). Full review: https://keepingupwiththepenguins.com/stiff-mary-roach/

This is a hilarious exploration of the strange lives of our bodies postmortem. I do not care what happens to me, blow me up, dissect, experiment, learn or plasticized me. A good read.

Author Mary Roach does a deep dive into the “careers” of human and animal cadavers. Ranging from the obvious medical anatomy cadavers for education to crash testing cars and planes for safety to organ and tissue donation, Roach really went out of her way to find both modern and medieval knowledge on how societies have used the bodies of the dead to help the living. Roach writes with an edge of humor to soften the blow of a couple of topics here.

I am a day late as it is Friday but here are my three!
1) Stiff- Mary Roach
2)Born a Crime - Trevor Noah
3)Forest Bathing - Dr. Quinn Li
