    Hilarious.

    We put this book on our coffee table, and whenever people come over, they immediately see it and crack up. Without fail. This is definitely going to be my go-to Christmas gift this year.

    Loved it. Hilarious little book!

    A little morbid, but absolutely adorable and just plain hilarious. I saw a blog about the book online and immediately ordered it. I loved each and every page, and definitely think this is a fantastic adult "kids book."

    Ebook format is off

    I love this book! However, the eBook format is a bit screwy. The images & text do not match up page to page, which takes away from the 'story'. Other than that, it's very humorous.

    Something You Don't Get In Trouble For Yelling In Class.

    This is something for everyone to enjoy! From
    an old guy who's most friends are dead to now having them all be dead.
    trees and end tables
    phil and doug....friendship...
    a ventrilaquist and mannequin...warning...


    If you're in middle school and highschool, make sure you know who has it, it tends to get passed around and stolen.
    If you're a business person, bring it to work in a display case.

    You're a doctor? Bring it into the Autopsy room.

    I love this book. It is quirky and funny, and good for starting

    I love this book. It is quirky and funny, and good for starting a conversation about a topic rarely discussed in our culture - death. Unfortunately, the formatting of the Nook version is terrible, the humor is more difficult to 'get' because things that should be on the same page aren't. This is the first time I have had this problem with a Nook book and I hope it will be corrected.

    Ebook format off

    This book is golden... although the illistrations and format of the pages on the nook appear to be off. Please fix this. Otherwise it confuses first time readers.

    Not as good as I expected AT ALL. Don't buy, it's only 7 pages and I didn't even smile, much less laugh.

    Better in hardcover

    I think it is hilarous but the nook version destroys the flow. However it was 9.99 at target which is still worth it because the pages are not chopped up as it is on nook. Sally ... avid reader with a great sense of humor
