I love this book and it is one of those that you hate to arrive at the last page. Like a good dream, you wish it would go on and on. An easy read and a pleasant experience. I highly recommend it for anyone who likes to read from ages 12 on up. Two thumbs up!

I have only gotten into it about 30 pages or so. But the format jumps from character to character as the story unfolds, giving it an unjointed feeling. The dialogue is clipped, not how people really talk. Rather in a half-sentence type communication which is usually seen in cop and criminal books. Because of the brief glimpses of each person's experience over and over, I kept forgetting who the people were. It doesn't flow, at least not for me.

Though I enjoy the books that aren't FICTION that Albom has wrote even more, I have to rate this one as excellent. It held my interest.....It's almost a bit of a mystery on "who done it".....I LOVE the ending especially. Some of it is to be expected some of it comes as a surprise. All of Albom's books that I have read have been great. I'm not a sports lover so not going down that dark alley. I have read all others except the Time Keeper which I will read as soon as I can. The videos are as good as the books! Mitch Albom has "writer's flair" and does not fail to disappoint. He's one of my favorite Authors. There are many books I don't enjoy but Albom's rates at the top with those that I do. If you haven't read this, I suggest you pick up a copy soon. You'll be glad you did!
Gave it as a gift, they loved it. ALL of his books are great

Mitch Albom keeps you engrossed from the beginning till the end. What a wonderful idea if we actually could speak with our loved ones from beyond the grave! As with all of his books, he makes it seem believable.
