Summary: TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE is awesome!!
Review: TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE by Mitch Albom is an awesome book! It is a true story of Morrie Schwartz, an old man who is slowly dying, and Mitch Albom, his former student who puts his materialistic life on hold so that he can realize what's really important in his life. Topics such as love, death, family, emotions, money, the fear of aging, marriage, culture, and forgiveness are all discussed in such a concise manner that they are easy to understand. It's as if I were sitting right next to Mitch, listening to Morrie talk about life in general. One of my favorite quotes from the book is found on page 188 in the paperback edition. "At one point, when Morrie's ashes were placed into the ground, I glanced around the cemetery. Morrie was right. It was indeed a lovely spot, trees and grass and a sloping hill. 'You talk, I'll listen,' he had said. I tried doing that in my head, and to my happiness, found that the imagined conversation felt almost natural. I looked down at my hands, saw my watch and realized why. It was Tuesday." This quote, and the book as a whole, is symbolic of a parent-child relationship. In the beginning, at Brandeis University, Morrie is the parent, taking care of Mitch in the classroom, as well as nurturing him for his graduate thesis. In the end, the roles have switched, and Mitch is found taking care of his old professor. One of the themes of this book is that you need to embrace life and make the most of what you have. No matter what path you take in life, whether it is a college professor, or a sports writer, you need people in your life that will be there for you. Mitch knew this in the beginning, but he lost sight of his goal. It took sixteen years, but in the end, he finally realized this and was able to make up with his brother. I am very fortunate as I take this advice into my own life because I am young. I have wasted so much of my life already watching TV, worrying about bad hair days, and other small stuff. I am very grateful that I read this book at the time I did because I am old enough to understand the lessons and I can act on them. I would not just recommend TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE to people who are grieving the loss of a loved one. I recommend this book to every person in the world. This book changed my whole outlook on life! Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching.

Summary: Story that will linger forever
Review: Tuesday's with Morrie is a true story from sports writer Mitch Albom. I first noticed this book on the best seller's list and I thought, "Why would a sports writer think they had the right to write a story about death?" After reading through the first 30 pages of the book I was hooked. Morrie's true story packs a wallop that I will never forget.
Anyone who was lost the path should defititely read this book. It really made me think twice about what's really important in life. Stay close to people in your life. Everyone serves a purpose. A must read!!

Summary: Read it!
Review: Everyone should read this book. You will come away a better person. The part that really got me was when Morrie said how too many people today walk around in a daze- so busy worrying about the past and the future, they don't live in the moment. This book changed my life as much as any self-help book ever has. It only takes a couple hours to read, and it's a couple hours I will never regret or forget.

Summary: The ultimate teacher
Review: I believe that this book is a wonderful book and should be shared with everyone. I think many can benfit from what Morrie has to teach and apply it to their own lives. If we could have a small amount of people be more like Morrie then maybe this world would be a better place for all of us.

Summary: A New Outlook
Review: This was an excellent book. Many young people today don't have the priviledge of talking to someone who is older and has a lot of experience in life. Young and old alike can benefit from reading this book. It can really change your outlook on life. Or at least give you something to think about.
