What do I need to do before we meet?

Participants will read as much of the chosen book as possible, filling in the provided workbook as they go and make notes of anything they found interesting, profound or a discussion point. You can purchase the book yourself or see if your local library or book exchange has a copy you can borrow.

What happens when we meet?

Everyone will get a chance to introduce themselves, then Kelly (or another facilitator) will give an overview of the book. Each participant will have an opportunity to share their points for discussion, as well as points prepared by the facilitator.

A small fee ensures people show up with intention. When we invest—even just a little—we’re more likely to read, participate, and contribute to a richer and more meaningful group experience.

Death Literacy Book Club

By Kelly - The Departure Coach

Online event

Overview

A book club for the curious mortals. If talking about death won't kill you, then why not read about it too.

Welcome to the Death Literacy Book Club!

Join me online for lively discussions on books that explore the theme of death in unique and thought-provoking ways. Whether you're a bookworm or just curious, this club is open to everyone.

You will receive a workbook to fill in as you read and we will go through this when we meet up.

Share your thoughts, connect with fellow readers, and discover new perspectives on mortality through literature. Let's dive in together, improve our death literacy, level up our end of life preparedness game, get lost in a story and grow connections at the same time.

I look forward to meeting you,

Kelly

February's book is "The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning" by Margareta Magnusson.

ABOUT THE BOOK

The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning by Margareta Magnusson is a warm, practical guide to organizing your life and possessions before others have to do it for you. Rooted in the Swedish concept of döstädning (literally “death cleaning”), the book encourages readers—especially those 50 and older—to thoughtfully sort through their belongings, keeping only what truly matters. With gentle humor and candid wisdom, Magnusson shows how clearing clutter is not just a gift to your loved ones, but a way to reflect on your life, make peace with the past, and create space for what’s still to come.
