This week we begin ‘what we are reading’ with the ‘Book of Life’.

Written by an author of unknown origin, the text was the third work in the ‘Pastel Palette’ trilogy after the popular ‘Book of Birth’ and the even more popular ‘Book of Contraception’.

It was awarded a small fine for blinding the printing boy and has been rumoured to crush unsuspecting librarian feet when dropped by me.

Ok, so it’s actually much more than that, this book is a recent publication from the Donate Life guys. Its a big book with a lot of hearts open to the public, it’s a collection of personal stories about dealing with organ donation and the benefits of providing another human with the blessing of a part of yourself.

Its a great piece of work by some great people and I would suggest everyone take a look at it, it’s here:
