The Case Against Sugar by Gary Taubes

Julia’s first review of the year

really liked it
Quite a convincing display of how the sugar industry has bullied or rewarded nearly every detractor of its product into silence, or worse, into promoting sugar as a wonder-food. Much interesting history of our ever-growing addiction to sugar, and chilling facts about what all this stickiness has done to our bodies (it's even worse than you think). Published in December, 2016.
Read it again, finished it on 12/30/22, but since I’m out in the middle ...more

What's after Life? by John Burke
What's after Life? by John Burke

Julia’s last review of the year

it was amazing
Wonderful overview of what people who have near death after life experiences have to say about it, after they return to their bodies. It’s an easy, interesting read. The basic experiences, from thousands of interviews, correlate well with each other, regardless of religious beliefs or national location. Apparently, this is sort of a summary of the author’s more in depth book, “Imagine Heaven.” I can hardly wait to read that one as well.
