In "Allergic to Dead Bodies, Funerals, and Other Fatal Circumstances," the protagonist, a young girl named Edie, navigates the challenges of growing up in a family entrenched in the funeral business. With a unique sense of humor, Edie grapples with her aversion to the macabre aspects of her surroundings while trying to fit in at school and cope with friendships. Her journey explores themes of identity, the bond between family and community, and the awkwardness of adolescence, all set against the backdrop of the unusual world of death and dying. Edie's witty observations offer a fresh perspective on life, loss, and acceptance. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
