I love Mary Roach's books. Shes very informative and fun. Her books make you feel like you're not really learning, but you are! Stiff was a great read for me since I'm grossly interested in forensic anthropology. Stiff taught me so many things about cadavers that I would have never expected to learn. Highly recommended if you're into the dead, or you're just interested in learning anything for fun!

I really enjoyed this book. It fully captivated me and pulled me in which is impressive for a non fiction book to do. I've been telling all my mates to read it too now cause I want to talk to people about it! Some other reviewers have said it seems a bit too crazy to be true, which maybe it is. We don't know, only the people who were there in the moments know what is the truth. We can't judge how others record their memories of events and such. But regardless it was still an amazing read and it would be great fact or fiction. It's quite obvious that the poor woman has a lot of emotional baggage and trauma from her childhood and I wish her the best in healing from it all.
