💀 Just finished 99 Ways to Die (And How to Avoid Them) by Dr. Ashley Alker — darkly funny, weirdly educational, and a little too real.

Written by an ER doc who’s seen it all. Would you read a book about bizarre deaths (and how to avoid them)? Or too dark for your TBR? ☕📚 #BookSky

While reading to my grandson, he asked me to read from my Kindle (so he could boop my pages). I’m currently reading 99 Ways to Die and How to Prevent Them by Ashely Alker, M. D., so now he knows much more about H1N1 and Hepatitis A and B than the average 3 year old.
