From

From the author of the phenomenal #1 New
York Times bestseller Tuesdays with
Morrie, a novel that explores the
unexpected connections of our lives, and the
idea that heaven is more than a place; it's
an answer.
Eddie is a wounded war veteran, an old
man who has lived, in his mind, an
uninspired life. His job is fixing rides at
a seaside amusement park. On his 83rd
birthday, a tragic accident kills him as he
tries to save a little girl from a falling
cart. He awakes in the afterlife, where he
learns that heaven is not a destination.
It's a place where your life is explained to
you by five people, some of whom you knew,
others who may have been strangers. One by
one, from childhood to soldier to old age,
Eddie's five people revisit their
connections to him on earth, illuminating
the mysteries of his "meaningless"
life, and revealing the haunting secret
behind the eternal question: "Why was I
here?"

A reviewer, an occasional reader, December 4, 2003,
A Christmas Carol?
I agree with 'Disappointed Tuesdays with
Morrie fan.' I found the book depressing. I
was anticipating something far more
uplifting and all through the book I was
waiting for the major shift that would cause
me to stop thinking that the book seemed
like a Dicken's A Christmas Carol rip-off.
The shift just never came. Wish I had read
this first, then Tuesday's with Morrie.
Anne, A Reviewer and Book Lover, December 4, 2003,
Disappointed
After reading Tuesdays with Morrie, I was
excited to read this book, and sad to say, I
was disappointed. I kept reading because I
hoped it would get better, but it really
left me flat. I'd like to think my life on
earth meant something also, but this poor
man just let life walk all over him. He
blamed his Dad for his own failings. I won't
recommend it to anyone.

describe this book. Well worth the read and
hard to put down once started.

Heaven is a progressive place
Mitch Albom's book is a must-read for the
individual who likes writing that follows a
sequence. The people that Eddie meets in
heaven parallel his life from youth to old
age. The Five People You Meet in Heaven
gives meaning to the entire span of one's
life though examples that demonstrate
unending love, deep compassion, and profound
understanding. This book easily satifies the
inquisitive mind and soothes the everpresent
soul.
