The Five People You Meet in Heaven

shemdani shared a tip "Easy to read, this book introduces an interesting concept - everything is connected. The concept may not be new for many people but the way author makes it real via bringing various stories together is simply beautiful."

marygrace_ryan shared a tip "Felt very introspective after finishing. I read it in a couple hours, and although it was a short book, it makes you think quite a bit. Raises questions about life and death, and the meaning of it all."

genevieve0 shared a tip "Oh goodness - my heart is torn. Every one of the five persons taught such valuable lessons and overall, to cherish the time you have here in life. You learn what is means to love others, make sacrifices, to forgive, to cherish, and to be forgiven and understood. This book has many beautiful quotes and even better life lessons. It’s an extremely easy read. I finished it in just less than the day. Everyone should read it at least once. 5 ⭐️"

rain_1071 shared a tip "This book was something I’ve always wanted to reach. Right when I saw the title I was like, “I need this book.”  I liked how Mitch wrote the book I liked how when (⚠️⚠️⚠️SPOILER⚠️⚠️⚠️ ) how when Eddie dies in the five people he meets is not just people. He knows is people that he met even once in his life, and they just had a giant impact on his in their own life. that’s the stuff I like to see when you see things from other peoples point of you even though there’s already a main character, it helps build more emotion. I wish there’s more books like this or I wish I knew this is definitely a top-five. "

kaypo shared a tip "slow, not much happens and not something that i’m dying to continue reading. i liked it, not loved it and i don’t think i would actually recommend it, but it wasn’t bad. limited character development as well."

marsha_duduletz shared a tip "I LOVED this book! Such a heart warming story though it has its sad part it still makes you smile. Kinda like the “A Man Called Ove” 4.7/5"

magsdal3na shared a tip "This is a short, feel-good book that will leave you wondering about your own life story and how everything fits together. As other readers have said, it offers a view of heaven that is not strictly a religious one so the story is good for all readers. I think this book should be read by anyone and everyone for its message and great story-telling by Albom."

ina_may_5837 shared a tip "I like how it shows people that no matter how small an interaction you might have with somebody it impacts their lives. It reiterates the importance of being kind."

heather_8098 shared a tip "This is my absolute favorite book. I received it some years ago from my aunt for Christmas and I read it within a few hours. It made me think things that I had not thought about and made me look at life in a different way."

lancelot_crow shared a tip "If you are searching for a soulful book, you found it! With many lessons on how to get on with the passing of others as well as how to deal with the existential questions you often ask yourself, Mitch Albom really created a masterpiece that even helped me through my darkest depression. A must read for anyone searching for what is meaning."

olivia_rose_5519 shared a tip "One of the books that got me most into reading. An amazing story full of ideas about how all of our lives are webbed together in one way or another!"

thao_le_5204 shared a tip "I just finished this book and I loved it. i’ve been out of the reading game and this was my first book in a long while. if any of you have suggestions pls lmk! it doesn’t have to give off the same vibes as this book but if i liked this one, are there any other books you all would think i would enjoy too? thanks!"

melina_acra shared a tip "It offers an interesting take on how heaven offers peace after death. I didn’t know what to expect going into this book but I ended up really liking it; it’s very thought provoking and manages to address a religious topic without actually talking about religion directly. It’s definitely worth the read."

kevin_lacey shared a tip "This is the only book I have read straight through. This book crystallized my worldview concerning how our actions echo far beyond what we could ever imagine!!"

genn_dee shared a tip "This book details how even the smallest action, whether it's from a loved one or from someone you don't even know, can impact your life. It's a 'feel good', easy read that, despite having "heaven" in the title, is not a religious read."

sara_bombay shared a tip "Easy read with heartfelt messages that warm the heart, I just finished reading this bad boy and would recommend it to anyone who likes the other side of things."

stephanie_calderon_5930 shared a tip "I loved how it all just came to a full circle and it really just made me think about the impact that we have on everyone we meet or come across."

elminakate shared a tip "when he met the girl he killed at war! i just didn’t expect it at all! it makes you think about what they are really doing overseas"

nikita_sawant shared a tip "Loved this book. It was a nice change of pace from my thrillers! Would absolutely recommend it. Also looking for suggestions for something similar."

sydpeach shared a tip "Literally SO GOOD!!! I love books that remind me that life has purpose and it's short so make the most of each day and moment. Made me feel the same type of way as "Before I Fall." Cried at least twice but will read again and will recommend generously."

regina_heel shared a tip "Lovely book. Short and it explored afterlife in a unique way. I loved the characters and the main character's journey. But this story is very emotional...It will make you cry."
