Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One Idea Of Heaven
Review: If I based my rating only on this being an interesting and well-written story, I would give it a five. However, the scenerio presented in this book contradicts my concept of heaven in that I believe there will be no anger, fear or pain in heaven. The main character, Eddie seemed to experience all of these. The author does present some compelling thoughts. It may well be that we will at some point understand the influence our life has had on others as well as the impact of another life on our own. At any rate I agree that this easy-to-read book could provide an inspiration to anyone who reads it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hard to put down!
Review: This is one of those books that you can't put down once you start it. It's a great book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than I had hoped
Review: If you liked Tuesdays With Morrie then you will love this book! It grabbed me right from the beginning and I could not put it down. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Five People You Meet in Heaven
Review: This has to be one of the best books I've ever read. In fact I read it in one night because I couldn't put it down. The author Mitch Albom combines the three separate parts of one mans life in a way that I found myself amazed at how each part flows together without confusion from going back and forth from the different parts of the man's life. I also found his fictional account of the afterlife very intriquing. Almost like a jigsaw puzzle the pieces fall into place without giving away how the book ends. Where many books have a predictable ending, Albom is able to keep you in suspense throughout the book to the last page. An excellent read. Karen M. Smith

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Inspiring
Review: Albom does it again. If you have read his former books you will want to buy this one. I could not put it down and felt I was better for reading it. His writing is the best by far. I hope this author writes another book soon.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nice, quick, thought-provoking read.
Review: This book is very quick, easy to read, and has a nice, thought-provoking, not "too" predictable story. After you finish reading it you're left with something to think about. This being the first Mitch Albom book I've read, I will definitely read another. I reccommend this book for people who like to read almost any type of book - most people will find something to like/appreciate about this book.

Oh and as for the comments from several other reviewers about this being too "preachy" - I didn't find that to be the case at all. If you're open to new ideas, you won't find this preachy at all; just another point of view.

Summary: Recommended
Review: This book was recommended. I like inspirational books. And if you like inspirational book, along the lines of THE LITTLE GUIDE TO HAPPINESS, which is my favorite, then I think perhaps you might want to consider giving this a try.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Simply Dreadful
Review: This book was given to me as a gift. It's so poorly written, I couldn't help wondering what the publisher was thinking. Made to appear as another "Tuesdays with Morrie", Albom sinks into a 5th grade writting style with a Christmas Carol theme. It's preachy, phony, sappy and tries to appeal to the emotions of the Oprah crowd. A dreadful money grab and not even worth the deep discounts offered here. Avoid this book as it piles up on the floors of your local Kmart.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Heaven on earth!
Review: I LOVED this book! When reading anything relating to Heaven, I always have the fear that my Heaven and the author's Heaven are very diffrent. My Heaven is being greated by loved ones and surrounded with happiness, joy and LOVE. Mitch Albom and I share many of the same beliefs of Heaven. This book made me cry in sadness and with great joy. I can't wait to share this wonderful book with the people I care about. This review is dedicated in loving memory of my Gabrielle and Potch.
