Snejana Danwell spoke on different issues and concerns of life in her book An Autopsy with a Smile. In an informative tone, the author tries to express her knowledge to help readers make informed decisions, which could help sail through certain life's turning points without much injury.

An autopsy with a Smile is a non-fiction explanation of life's matters, including jobs and interviews, peculiarities about different countries of the world, foods, male and female distinctions, and getting one's marriage partner.

To this end, the book's content is divided into seven chapters, and each expresses the author's discussion relating to her opinion and advice. For example, part one centered on success opinions on getting one's hand in a suitable profession, writing a CV, and winning job interviews.

The second part centered on the discussion about different countries of the world, such as the prevailing economic situation, culture, and weather conditions—taking the countries by each continent. The chapters continue to number seven, which contains the author's discussion and advice about how to handle marriage life and how one goes around to secure a marriage partner.

The author wrote the book with a free expression of thought; I felt her free expression from the vibes that emanate from the tone she used to write the book. Sincerely, the book is informative because I'm informed about some important realities of life. For example, when the author said something about winning an interview, she pointed out how to pose before a male interview and also how to pose before a female interviewer. Under this also, I loved and cherished her assertion concerning having a profession: “it always pays off to acknowledge your talents and make the best of them.”

Additionally, I could gain some insights into the peculiarities of some other countries, including countries in the African continent, which is my native land. In the book, readers can gain some first-hand information about places they are not familiar with. She pointed out some important cultures of places.

If you love to expand your knowledge about dealing with fellow humans, this book could be a starting point. This is because most of its chapters are centered on dealing with life's struggles that have to do with understanding human behavior in specific situations such as work environment and visiting places of another culture other than yours.

Conversely, I wasn't comfortable holding all that she said in the book because she didn't reference a source from which she got the information in the book. She only tells them authoritatively, but this is expensive information that needs reliable verification before I can say I hold facts. For example, the meaning she expressly ascribed to the word 'husband' is far from its dictionary meaning, and she references no source from which she has learned that.

Though, the information that I can reason about with common sense proved to be relatively true, such as the information that I'm familiar with and those that are of psychological meaning—for example, information about Nigeria and other facts about meeting one's ends and getting one's soulmate.

I'll, therefore, rate the book 2 out of 4 stars. I'm removing one star for the inadequacies I've earlier mentioned. And the removal of another star is because the book has lots of grammar errors, which prove that it has not been professionally edited.

Many times an author’s opinion differs from my own, but that’s OK. Just because we all have our own opinions doesn’t mean we can’t be friends. As long as it is presented as opinion and not fact, everything’s great!

I'm interested in the part of the book about life's matters with discussions on jobs and interviews.

At first, I thought this is a self-help book to do autopsy. Turns out it's autopsy our life like working interview and marriage. Too bad there are a lot of errors in the book. Thanks for the review.

This story sounds interesting. Ellie is a smart, powerful woman, and I adore the way she sounds. The notion of a brain named Brian was also incredibly humorous to me. I've added this book to my list of unread books. Congratulations on being selected as BOTD!
