Why you should read the book “how to not die alone”
The number one fear among all people is dying alone. This fear is so prevalent that Canada has a dedicated ministry for the elderly called Long Term Care. The goal of Long Term Care is to prevent people from dying alone. But there are things we can do as individuals to prevent this from happening. One of these things is reading a book called How to Not Die Alone by Stacy Carson. This book will teach you everything you need to know about staying connected with others during your life.

A book for everyone
This book is for everyone. I can’t stress that enough. If you’re a woman, if you’re married, if you’re single, young or old—this book will help.
In her book How to Not Die Alone: The Surprising Science Behind Who Lives Longer and Why (Simon & Schuster; $28), author Barbara Risman wrote about two types of people. The ones who live alone and die alone because they choose not to have a partner in their lives. And those who do have partners but still die alone because they aren’t close with their families or friends.

After reading this book, I realized I was firmly in the latter category: someone who had chosen to keep my social circles small after college (when most people begin expanding their groups). As well as my potential romantic partners within a certain age range. So that we could relate on similar levels intellectually without having to worry about them growing old with me while I stayed young forever!
Now that’s not healthy at all!
It’s funny
- The book is funny.
- It’s funny because the author is relatable.
- It’s also funny because it’s real and relatable, which I think is totally cool!
It’s a quick read
The book is short, clocking in at 220 pages. I read it in one sitting, but you could just as easily read it over two sittings or even take a week to finish it. You could read the first chapter on your morning commute. You can also enjoy reading this book while waiting in line for coffee at your favorite cafe (or when you’re on vacation, like me!). It’s an easy book to pick up and put down whenever life gets busy.
This is not to say that there aren’t other benefits of reading “how to not die alone.” One of my favorite parts of the book was how it got me thinking about how my time here on earth would go down if I didn’t have anyone around me during those last few days or hours before my death. And what kind of legacy I’d leave behind if no one was there to do something with whatever belongings remained after my passing.
The chapters are short and easy to read
The book is short, and each chapter is only a few pages long. This makes it easy to read the book in one sitting. Also, the chapters are written in a way that makes it easy for you to understand them. No matter what your level of knowledge or education is.
The author also uses stories from his own life and other people’s lives to illustrate his point. About how you can make friends at any age if you just go out there and do it!
The author is Canadian, so that helps
You should read this book because the author, Joanne Hay, is Canadian.
Yes, there are many things that differentiate Canadians from Americans. We have better health care and there’s less gun violence. But none of those are as important as the fact that Joanne Hay is Canadian. You could say we’re more polite than Americans, but it goes deeper than that: when you meet a Canadian for the first time in person, you know they won’t try to sell you something or tell an inappropriate joke afterward. And if they do tell an inappropriate joke later on (like after they’ve become your friend). Then it’s fine because everyone has their own sense of humor and everyone knows how weird Canadians can be sometimes.
If you want someone who will listen to all your problems without judgment. And who will also make fun of you for being so negative about yourself. Then read How To Not Die Alone by Joanne Hay!



She writes about real things that happen in life
In her book, she writes about real things that happen in life. She writes about the good, the bad, and the ugly. In one chapter she talks about how she met a man who was going to be her husband but he died before they could get married. She also talks about a time when her mother was dying from cancer and how it was hard watching someone you love die slowly over several years while they’re still alive.
But not only does she write about bad things that have happened in her life, but also good things too! In another chapter of this book, she describes how meeting someone on Facebook led to falling in love with them even though they lived far away from each other physically (she lived in California while he lived in Florida).
She explains how this relationship actually worked out despite him being married with children already; however, after 3 years together, their relationship ended because he could no longer justify being unfaithful anymore (even though his wife knew nothing of what happened between them).
She writes about the good, the bad, and the ugly
The book, How to Not Die Alone, is written by the author, who writes about the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good is how to not die alone. This involves having someone around that you can talk with who will listen to you and give you advice when needed. The book is about how to not die alone. This involves being alone all of your life without any friends or family members in which case no one would know what happens when someone dies because there is no one around them at all times during their lifetime.
Lastly for our purposes here today we have ugly: how not dying alone involves purchasing a headstone or tombstone prior to or after death. So that other people know where your body lies. And if possible visit it often enough so that it doesn’t get forgotten about later on down through history. When nobody really cares anymore except maybe some historians looking back into past events from different perspectives such as political science professors looking into why certain laws were created along with other fields such as criminology studies regarding criminal behavior patterns across generations etcetera et cetera
Read the book.
This book is a good read. It is short and sweet, with each chapter being around five pages long. The author has a way with words that keeps you hooked as she tells her story in an honest and open way. The only thing I found slightly off-putting was the Canadian accent. Sometimes it was hard to follow but if you can get past this hiccup, it’s worth your time!
