What readers think of The Five People You Meet In Heaven, plus links to write your own review.

I just start reading the book, it is fantastic.
I was force to read this book because it was a mandatory. But the line 'every ending is a new beginning' captured my attention. A wonderful book to read!

Five People You Meet in Heaven enables us to view life beyond it, help us to realize that all happenings in life have lessons to be learned. Mitch Albom systematically enumerates all the important lessons one must learn to be able to float in the sky without worrying about pain, suffering and all that. The thought that once we live our life in a way that we thought is the best is just the same when you live your life at worse. Each experience brings out something for us to grow we just don’t know it at that time and every life has a purpose, sometimes you just need help finding it.

Mitch Albom made a good perspective of what is heaven.

I though the story was just talking mostly about a man that died and who lost his wife. It was not happy it's very sad and it was not good as other books that I read before . So I didn't really like the story that Albom's talking about....

An engrossing tale about the afterlife as Mitch Albom sees it this book is a deeply moving novel with a surprising level of comic relief that would not be expected from a book devoted entirely to death and what comes after. A bit too sentimental for my taste but still a book worth reading and worth enjoying.

Mitch Albom puts into words a whole new idea of what happens in the afterlife. He incorporates the thought that every person in this world is somehow connected with each other. In this story Eddie is like so many people in this world, alone , questioning why he was put on this earth, what his purpose was. To his surprise when he passes on he meets five people, some of whom he knows some of which he's never met. They show him how he forever changed their lives, how his existence made a difference , left an impact. This novel makes you reconsider your opinion on life , a real " thinker."

This was undoubtedly the best book I have ever read and it gave me a new perspective on heaven but the only thing I wish would have happened is that he had met God but I do hope there is a sequel and that it is the girl and the last person that she meets is Eddie and that it is even better that the last and many to come! I LOVE THIS BOOK AND AM ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED AND I HOPE THAT EVERY ONE READS THIS BOOK! Even if you don't like to read this book is so good that it should only take you two hours tops to read it so please do it will give you a new perspective on everything!

This book is excellent. I am in 9th grade and i have to read it for school. I would recommend this book to anybody.

This book shows that people really do have a meaning for life and that everyone should love life. Live life to the fullest.

The book is AWESOME. definitely a must-read book. Im a big fan of Tuesday with Morrie, so when i saw 5 people you meet in heaven, i immediately grabbed it from the shelves of the bookstore. I'm so into it, that i i finished the half of the book within 1 hour, then i was so surprised to find out that one of the settings is here in my country, PHILIPPINES. And it even has a Tagalog words in it, though it's grammatically wrong in our language. STILL, I'm proud to be PINOY! It's where the war happened. It definitely changed my image of HEAVEN, and it's definitely a better afterlife, so I can reflect on my pastlife and understand "WHY AM I EVEN HERE???"
