I love the book, the idea that five people who are important to us whatever we know it or not appeals to me. I love reading that book. It has also made an impression that ours lives touch others lives no matter how insignificant we think we are. I wonder how many people have read this book. So here is my question: Have you read Five people you meet in heaven?

I will admit, I'm not a very religious person, but I picked this book up anyway despite the title. I was pleasantly surprised. It was a very eye opening book for me, and to this day it causes me to contemplate things a lot. I also sent this book to my husband while he was deployed and he enjoyed it also, and he doesn't even like to read.

I love the book. And you are right it is a book that makes one think on how one lives and can even see life in a diferent way. I love the part how we continue to love people even if we can no longer hold them. I am glad that you and your husband enjoy it.

No, I have not read that book, notdo I want to. But I do agree that everyone we interact with we have made an impression of some sort. You, my dear, are not insignificant

Thanks for letting me know that, even tho sometimes I feel that way. In the other hand you are very important to a lot of people (especially me)

Hi Shelly, this is a meaningful book; and if you like this one, you should also try another book by the same writer 'Tuesdays with Morrie'. I've read both books, and have found 'Tuesdays with Morrie' a very compelling book.
