Advantages: It works, fairly inexpensive Disadvantages: None that I can think of
I first stumbled across this little miracle cream completely by accident. Approximately six months ago, I bought some Boots No 7 cosmetics, mascara and an eye pencil, if I remember correctly. There was some sort of ?special offer? on at the time, which I wasn?t aware of ? spend £15.00 or more on Boots No 7 cosmetics and you get a free ?gift pack?, consisting of a few different No 7 products, including, nail varnish, moisturising day cream, an eye-brow pencil a make up bag, and Boots No 7 Protect and Perfect Serum.

Introduction
I will preface the review for this book by saying I truly hope none of you ever actually need to buy it. However if you do - I would highly recommend it.
"Death...And How to Survive It" is a book written specifically to help people who have lost their spouse or partner. Sadly for me, I had reason to buy this book in March last year when my husband died suddenly.
