Incredible. It is not as much a memoir but an interesting exploration on death and what it means. Everything was very well written and it flowed. The writing was beautiful and philosophical while still being accessible. Unlike This is Going to Hurt, he explored how he used his medical profession as a way to learn more about death and to push himself while serving others which I found beautiful. It was inspiring and heartbreaking.
