Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A lesson in life
Review: Tuesdays with Morrie is a book about dying, but it is, in my opinion, a lesson in living. If the reader chooses, he can glean great strengths from this book. I thought it had excellent content and was well written.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beautiful book filled with love. Masterful!
Review: Just a beautiful story about a wonderful man filled with love. The spiritual journey that he shares is touching and inspirational. It's an amazing read, that lifts and moves. It's fast paced and has that "what's next" quality that keeps it moving even though it's completely character based.

You'll fall in love with Morrie and appreciate Mitch for writing such a beautiful tribute.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: moving, enlightening, inspiring, touching, loving
Review: This is the best book that I have read in a long time. It is filled with many lessons for us all and gives us a sensitive insight into the process of dying for someone as wise as Morrie. The world would be a much better place to be if we all would take to heart the message that Morrie was giving us. I would love to buy this book for every person that I love and care about and share a beautiful tribute to a wonderful man and teacher.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mitch expands his writing!!!!!
Review: After reading and loving such books as "The Fab Five" Mitch's latest was a pleasant surprise. We all need mentors such as Morrie in our lives. Without them, reading this book periodically will be a good replacement. I feel like after reading the book Morrie was my friend too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply wonderful!
Review: If only we could have this insight at the beginning of our lives! This book definitely helps you see how simple life can be...if only we would let it! It made me put into perspective what is important!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Sweet Man, a Shallow Man
Review: Morrie Schwartz was a sweet, caring man who had a lot to teach. The most touching anecdote is his death bed regret for not forgiving an old friend before the friend died. It is a poignant lesson that even a sweet man like Schwartz can lose a friend through pride.

On the other hand, Albom is an annoying presence in this book. He dutifully hates himself for his worldly success, but obviously made a tidy sum on this runaway best seller. Schwartz is too fond of Morrie's aphorisms (e.g., "to learn how to live, you must learn how to die.") Morrie's recollections and present sense impressions are far more valuable than the cliches that Albom thinks so profound. I also wish Albom had not waited until the end of the book to disclose the financial relationhip that he and Morrie had entered into. There is nothing wrong with it and, in fact, it was a noble gesture. But through most of the book there is no explanation of why Albom's visits were such a high priority to this dying man.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EVERYONE should read this book.
Review: This is an amazing and very powerful book that really makes you take a look at your life and the things that matter most to you. It is very well written and you'll find yourself caught up in the story before you know it. I think everyone should read this book!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you read only one more book in your life make it this one
Review: Death of the body is an inescapable part of life; but death of the spirit during the process of dying is a choice. Each of us has a personal belief system about what happens to the spirit after death occurs; but no matter what your's is, this book has at least one lesson to offer you to enhance the life you are living now. Mitch Albom has given all of us the opportunity to share with him in Morrie's mentorship, a gift for which I will always be most humbly grateful.

Morrie's lessons aren't geared to any one age or stage of life. I firmly belive that our youth as well as our elders will respond to this book with a true opening of the spirit, and come away with insights they might never have received otherwise. If you were planning to read only one more book in your lifetime, I would definitely recommend that this be the one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It was an eye-opening book!
Review: I was asigned to read this book for my English class, I was like 'This is going to be another boring book.' It was not, in fact, it was the best book that I have ever read. I would recomned this book to anyone! It tought me to make the best out of life while I still can. Also, it tought me not to hold back my feelings, let others now how I feel. I wish Morrie was still here, so he could be my professor! I want to thank Mr. Micth Albom for writing this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book changed my life.
Review: Never has such a simple story had such a big impact on my life. I read this book while on vacation and intend to buy it for all my friends this Christmas. The story was told so simply and yet so beautifully. I find myself keeping things more in perspective these days, asking what would Morrie think about the stituation, how would he handle it. This book is a true treasure.
