Mitch Albom - The Five People You Meet in Heaven

[Adam]

You're right Adam, it was made for TV. The good news though is it's out on dvd, try Amazon or eBay.

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'll have to do a look for this now.

i really loved the book..

 

it helped me a lot to move on in the death of my favorite grandmother..

 

the author really knows well the meaning of life and how to cope with the loss of someone you love..

Well I finished it and was disappointed. This is what I wrote on my reading log:

 

Yeah I agree with your comments. I much preferred Richard Bach's- The Bridge Across Forever on a similar topic but far less of the schmaltz...

I really enjoyed this book aswell. Thought it was a brilliant idea for a story.

I haven't read this book but I've just read Tuesdays with Morrie by the same author and I cried from start to finish - do you think I should read this one too?

Definetly. This is an amazing book that will tug at the heart strings. It is a beautiful story and written very well. It has gotten rave reviews by anyone who has read it. If you enjoyed Tuesday's with Morrie, then your bound to like The Five People You Meet In Heaven.

I finished this a little while ago. I enjoyed it because it was a quick read (about 3 hours) that was just enough to do justice to his idea, it was quite structured and the ending was a proper ending which tied everything up and made sense. (I had been quite dissatisfied with the ending of Miss Smilla's Feeling For Snow)

I read this and enjoyed it, i liked the idea of meeting 5 people in heaven who would help you look at your life in a different way i thought that would be something to look forward to

Yes it is quite a nice idea, and more plausible to me than some religious things I have read....I am not in a hurry to find out what really happens though I can wait.
