This was not a book I would have normally chosen. The cover alone sort of put me off and I tend to choose fiction over non fiction but I am so glad I read this book. The concept gripped me from the beginning and I was intrigued to find out more. Rick Edwards and Dr Michael Brooks take a method / cause of death from predators to insomnia that is regularly portrayed in movies and analyses the possibility of it. They turn what should be a dark, morbid and depressing subject into some fascinating, clever and, in some places, hilarious. I love the format of the book, how they interject with funny conversations between them both. They discuss the topics scientifically but add humour, meaning that I was never bored whilst reading this. I didnt want it to end and had to read sections of it out to friends and family as I learnt so many interesting facts. Thank you for introducing this book to me.
