The Thing About Life is That One Day You'll Be Dead by David Shields

3.0

Reconfirming why I don't read a lot of memoirs, this one was fine, not mindblowing. Between facts about how our bodies break down and musings over his father's incredible longevity, Shields reminds us of the inevitable, and tries to make death seem, uh, normal. (It is. I know. Then again, it's not. Right?)
