  Death Matters is a unusual new book that encourages us to change how we think about dying. Throughout the book, author Sally Petch asks us to start talking about and planning our own death - so that we can reach a place of acceptance and lessen our fear of an event which is, ultimately inevitable. Taking a gentle, questioning format, Death Matters encourages us to pause and think about different aspects of dying. Sally poses several questions, encouraging us to note down our responses and consider our thoughts and feelings in response to specific topics. Death Matters also shares other people's thoughts, anecdotes and experiences to help us feel more comfortable with discussing death openly. There are few books on this topic, fewer still that deal with death in this direct manner - all of which make Death Matters essential reading for everyone who wishes to embrace death positively. By overcoming our fear of death, we will release ourselves to live a fuller live. By changing our emphasis to accept death, we can journey towards dying with confidence and equilibrium.
