I took a breathe before I started reading this book. The concept is brilliant but I had a few near-death experiences not along ago, which is probably why it resonated so much with me. I read this book in a day, unable to put it down. It has twenty-one stories looking at all aspects of life and has ten tips to live a less regretful life.
I could not be more happy that I read this book. There are some heart-breaking moments but, ultimately, this book is about the joy of life. Georgina Scull is a fantastic writer and she pours herself onto the page. Each subject is treated delicately with care and respect. Regrets of The Dying is a life-affirming book which shows us what is important in life. I loved it and I cannot recommend it enough.This is a beautiful book full of hope.

A powerful, moving and hopeful book exploring what people regret most when they are dying and how this can help us lead a better life.

If you were told you were going to die tomorrow, what would you regret?

Ten years ago, without time to think or prepare, Georgina Scull ruptured internally. The doctors told her she could have died and, as Georgina recovered, she began to consider the life she had led and what she would have left behind.

Paralysed by a fear of wasting what seemed like precious time but also fully ready to learn how to spend her second chance, Georgina set out to meet others who had faced their own mortality or had the end in sight.

The people she met taught her what it feels like to know you’re running out of time, what tends to stays with you, what you should let go of, what everyone wishes they’d done differently and what it means to have a life well-lived.

Regrets of the Dying is a powerful and hopeful meditation on life and what really matters in the end.
