It's from the same author as "Tuesdays with Morrie". I love this book. It's so inspirational. I couldn't put it down. I finished it in one sitting. Of course, the book isn't a thousand pages long. I believe I finished reading it in about 4 hours or less.

Pick up a copy. If you like reading books about life and self-improvement, this is a must!

Has anyone read this book? Did it inspire you like it did me?

No, I haven't read it, but I just might, now that you've brought it to my attention. Thanks! :o)

I forgot to mention the author's name. He is Mitch Albom. Happy reading. Let me know what you think, ok?

I did. It packs quite a punch and left me wanting for more. Of course I had to use sneakier ways of getting that book because my mom thought that the book spoke of something else. I'm glad I was able to read it.

I know, the title makes it sound like a religious book....or a thriller. Far from it. I don't know how to categorize it. I would say self-improvement.

She thought it was some sort of crime novels with lots of gory details. I just can't understand her sometimes.

I've never read it. Who wrote it? I love to read but, lately, I haven't been reading as much. I started making money online in October and now I'm addicted! I had no idea before that you could make free money online! I love it!


myLot reputation of 95/100. petebaja (218)   ranked 1,022 out of 9,003 in reading  5 years ago

LOL....ha ha ha! I too am addicted to this online thing. Not necessarily for the money, but, for all the content and friends you meet online.

The author is Mitch Albom. Pick up a copy, you won't be able to put it down.

I don't do MyLot for the money, I do it for the friends and conversation. I do everything else for the money. LOL

It was written by Mitch Albom who also wrote "Thursdays with Morrie".

Oops! ROFL! That's "Tuesdays with Morrie". Ha ha!

I haven't read the book but hope to one day. But I did see the made-for-TV movie with Jon Voight (Angelina Jolie's father) that aired shortly after my father died in early 2006. It was a very touching movie. I loved it and I am sure I would love the book too. My sister put the book in my father's casket.

I didn't get to see the movie, but I heard about it. I don't think the movie can have the same impact as the book. But now that you've seen the movie and know details of it, I don't know if the book will have the same impact on you.

Regardless, get a copy and read it. I've read it twice and after a few months, I'll probably re-read it again. Kind of like a user's manual for life!

Oh....by the way, that was a nice touch by your sister.

I listened to this on audio and enjoyed it. The man has an interesting turn of mind/phrase.

hey, i was just searching around on the internet and i came across your question.
i read the five people you meet in heaven about two months ago. i can honestly say,
i hate reading, and i havent picked up a book for leisure in a while. but i can say that
this book CHANGED.MY.LIFE. honest to god, i feel like im living in another world. my view
on everything has changed. everything is more important to me than before, i make sure
to capture each moment as it was my last, even though i am just a budding high school student.
i cannot get over the this book, i have told everyone to read it, so maybe they will feel the same way.

i just picked up tuesdays with morrie this afternoon at school. ive been reading nonstop for a little while now,
and i cannot put it down.
thanks for letting me share my deepness. LOL.
