"Statistically speaking, you're more likely to die on your birthday than any other day of the year. Unfortunately for Nora Bird, her parents beat the odds and died on her birthday instead. Eighteen years later and that gray mid-November air still weighed heavy as she shut the day behind her with the swing of a pigeon-graffitied glass door and began the daily trek up the stairs to her office."-A Grim Reaper's Guide to Cheating Death by Maxie Dara 

Oh, that sounds awful! To have a day where you're supposed to be celebrating, also becoming the anniversary of a loss, that's tough. Must read more now! What about you guys? Happy reading!
