Summary: EXCELLENT
Review: This was an excellent book. I'm not a reader, but I read this book in two days. It reminded me that life is short and we shouldn't take it for granted. I gave this book as a gift to all my friends who dedicate their life to their JOBS. This book brings to light what's MOST important.

Summary: Who gets the message?
Review: It is a little inauthentic for Albom to create a book thattells us not to be ambitious, to avoid chasing money or fame in a bookdesigned to increase both his fortune and fame. If he were serious, he would have given much more than the advance away.

Summary: Exceptional Reading
Review: Full of life experiences shared by Morrie and Mitch, this book announces the true spirit of sharing meaningful experiences with good friends. I recommend this book to anyone who desires to 1) learn about life, 2) become a mentor or mentee, and 3) desires to be a leader.Morrie is an incredible man with strength, endurance, and humility. He shows me what is really important in my life. Morrie's stories and experiences will live on forever. After I read this book, I realized what life is really about, friends. Please read this book, it's an experience you'll never forget!

Summary: A Way To Rethink Life
Review: A very quick read... this book deals with one man's reintroduction to what it means to truly be alive. Throughout the work, I was able to take pieces of advice from the wise Morrie and think how they would affect my life for the good. This book will make you ponder what it means to be alive and how you go from day to day. The best part is the fact that if you believe you are wasting your time on earth just a bit, he gives you a new way to open your senses. I came away with a sad but peaceful feeling in my heart, and I would recommend this book to everyone... especially those feeling down about life... this is an uplifting story for all...

Summary: Living, Loving and Dying
Review: I am usually someone that doesn't cry at all but this book touched my heart. I couldn't help shedding a tear even if I was reading the book on the metro or on the train or even sitting on a bench in the park. I opened the book halfway through a temporary depression and finished the quick read feeling happy and wanting to enjoy each detail in life. I used to be scared of death and I'm not anymore. After reading this book, death went from being a taboo subject for me to being another step in life which is as beautiful as all the other steps. I love Morrie. I wish I had Tuesdays with Morrie. With this book I have learned how to live a more productive life, how to love other people from deep inside the heart and how to be able to take Death and be ready for it every single day of my life.

Summary: The Grace of the Living
Review: Reading TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE was a wonderful experience. The dialogue worked well and the author's style introduces another ethnographic approach to writing about the self in the company of fellow earthlings. I finished the book feeling more human and compassionate than when I first opened it.

Summary: We should read then take action!
Review: What an inspiring book Mitch Albom and Morrie Schwartz wrote! Albom has given us the crux of what mattered most to his mentor, and what should matter most to us all. As a Christian, I wish Schwartz had realized that he was espousing the values that Jesus Christ taught. Nevertheless, maybe readers of this book will come to know Christ as a result of Schwartz's carefully-lived life and lessons. Now, if we can make the act of closing the book be only the opening of a life filled with love and good works...

Summary: How could you not love this book?
Review: Exceptional...a book you should read as soon as possible. I have read many many books, and this is one of the best. No, it is not long, and no it does not go into prolonged philosophies about life (which a few readers have blasted it for), but it does make you think about your own life and how short it is. Will you change after reading this book? That depends on you, but it will definitely make you think. Do yourself a favor and read it.
