Summary: Great word of mouth
Review: I have heard and read great things about this book. Thus, I'm checking it out here. I think I might get it. I also recommend the book, The Little Guide To Happiness. For personal reasons.

Summary: Almost Great
Review: This is excellent writing and storytelling. I agree that it is not as good as Sue Monk Kidd's "Secret Life of Bees" or Rikki Lee Travolta's "My Fractured Life" but it is even better than Mark Haddon's "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" and Yann Martell's "Life of Pi." It has an element of Oprah Book Club to it.

Summary: Amazing Book
Review: This book causes you to review your own life (and wonder whom the people greeting you will be)! It has a wonderful message.
Rating: 
Summary: Poorly Written
Review: As much as I wanted to like this book, I couldn't bring myself to. The characters are flat and the plot predictable. If you're really looking for a book that explores death and the afterlife well, try Hotel World by Ali Smith or The Lovely Bones by Alice Seabold. They're much more worth the money and time.

Summary: A tender and inspiring story....
Review: This is an amazing story. I came across it by chance while browsing the books on Amazon, and got hooked when I read some of the sample pages. I am very happy I bought this book. It's quick reading, I read it in about three hours. But for such a short book, it's very meaningful. The author illustrates the important lessons of life in a very subtle way. You don't realize the beauty of what he is writing about until the very end, when it all comes together to show that every life has a meaning, even though we don't always understand that meaning. I recommend this book very highly.

Summary: Magnificent Book---Full of Life
Review: I was perusing my budget and swore that I wouldn't buy any more books this year...until I went into Sam's to buy groceries and saw this curiously titled little tome. I pleaded with the budget gods to forgive me this one last time and tossed it into my cart. I sat down to read it when I got home and never moved from my chair until I'd read the last page. What a story!!It's chock full of Zen-like, thought-provoking insights about the important things in life like love, forgiveness, hope, friendship and living in the present moment. The blue man was one of my favorite characters....what was heaven to him was hell to another...so true of real life! So much depends upon our outlook, our circumstances and our attitudes. I read somewhere that the worth of a book can be measured by what you carry away from it....in that case, this book is worth it's weight in diamonds and gold. I'll treasure it and find it a home along side my favorite inspirational books.

Summary: The best book I ever read
Review: I thought this was an amazing book. It was so different in its ideas of heaven that you are immediatley drawn into the story. The character of Eddie really doesn't know why he mattered in the world but that is what the five people explain to him. Its a quick read but as touching and great as Tuesdays with Morrie.
Rating:
Summary: It changes the way you look at people.
Review: I have never read Tuesday's with Morrie nor have I ever written anything by this author. I picked up this book becasue the title caught my eye in the bookstore. As a person who has a family member who is sick, and as someone who has a life threatening disease myself, I decided to give it a whirl. I have to say I am glad I did. I believe in God. I am no theologian, I am not sure what is waiting for me after this life, or even if there is an afterlife. But, reading this book made me think. Not about who I will see but will I be someone's person that they meet. The simple and straight forward style of the book makes it an easy read, but one that leaves a lot up to the reader to understand. As someone who is married and who has gone through times that have left me changed (granted not a war but dificult times just the same) I was able to put myself in Eddie's place. I think that we all look for ways to break out of what it appears our rolls are in life. Eddie found out that his roll was exactly what he did. He couldn't get away from it. I also found it quite compelling that Eddie wanted to have his wife back in her later form, not the form she appears in. Makes me wonder, how will I look in heaven? Do I get to choose? All in all, a good book. One that will have a prominent place in my collection, my mind, and my heart.

Summary: Powerful, Thought provoking
Review: So much to think about you can devour it in a setting and then reread and read again. People do impact each others lives under many circumstances. Powerful to think that no matter what you do or even who you are you can touch others, make a impact. Days later and I find myself pondering on the five people I will meet in heaven. Perhaps the greatest message is be aware of people who come and go in your life and make a difference every day
