LT-ER. It started a little slow, but I loved this book 📖 by the end. Lovely, lyrical musings on the nature of dying, a little bit about death, and a lot about those left behind. And a lot about the nature of love. These are not sad stories but they are thoughtful and thought provoking. Highly recommend.

This book didn't do much for me. But it wasn't bad either. I can't recommend though. I couldn't connect to the people in the stories as much I'd have liked to.

I loved this book - the stories reminded me of the way books used to be written. John Sims Jeter does an outstanding job of bringing out life experience at the time of transition bringing an entire life into a few pages and I loved it. Looking forward to future books by this author.

This is a collection of short stories that focus on death in one way or another. You might think they might be an idea about how to approach your intended demise, but most of them are focused one authors view of death and oftentimes music as well. I would not say this collection is for everyone, they are deeply personal stories so some people might find them unsettling; but they are intriguing.
