Though most organized religions would claim otherwise, we have no idea what happens after we die. In Spook, Mary Roach trains her trademark curiosity and wit on the state of science (and, honestly, a lot of pseudoscience) surrounding the afterlife. It was good and well-researched, but I didn't latch onto any of the anecdotes or characters Roach encountered over the course of the book, and the afterlife isn't something that I've been terribly curious about, so I can't say I have strong feelings about it. We'll be discussing this at Boneshaker's Science Book Club on October 6, so if any incandescent insights come out of that, I'll add those here.
