My review is on the book "The Five People You Meet In Heaven" by: Mitch Albom. I haven't read the whole thing, yet, but as far as I've read, it all goes very deep. The beginning starts at the end where an 83-year-old man named Eddie dies at an amusement park. It's not so sad as much as interesting, because Mr. Albom explains Eddie's life in a nut shell and his last 50 minutes alive.
I recommend this book to anyone who loves to read. It can get confusing at times, but if you buy this book, you have to finish it no matter what. Post your comments if you've read the book, or just think it sounds awesome, bad, horrible, O.K, or anything else, I can't wait to read what you say.
Comments
I Think that this book sounds AMAZING but is there a plot? What is the plot? Does Mr. Albom just explain Eddies life in the whole book? Or is there an exciting adventure?

Of course there's a plot! I'm not sure if you would call it an adventure. Eddie dies about twenty or so pages in, then it goes on to tell of five people. He's in Heaven (of course) and he meets five people who he's seen and remembered at some point in his life. Mitch Albom says in fiction that you meet five people in heaven always, and the five people are different for everyone. The five people Eddie meets, tell him about his life and help him to better understand it. They tell him why he remembered each one of them, and why they were significant in his growing up and his life and all that. It's neat, really neat. The book's not for everybody because everybody has different veiws on the way a book should be. The Five People You Meet In Heaven has a bit of an intelectual plot where everything meshes together and you almost feel awed. So, like I said before, I'm not sure you would call it exciting. Check it out and see how you like it.

Hey Jordyn! I like you review on Writing! I myself love to read, but not really write. But I am a very descriptive writer!

Hi, Jojo, maybe you can use your writing skills to write a poem or a short story. You don't like to write, so maybe you're writing the wrong thing. Find something fun to use your descriptive skills on. =) Glad to hear you love to read!
Have a good day.

That's great! Maybe I'll try reading Tuesdays With Morrie. Is it a good book? (stupid question)

Great! Thank you for your comment.
Yes! I bet! I can strongly recommend Tuesdays with Morrie to everyone who had read The Five People You Meet in Heaven.
Morrie had a serious disease, he had to face severe situation. His words in his hard days are warm and insightful.
OK, just wait till I finish reading Five People in Heaven. I hope we can exchange our impression later.
