Reviews: Richelle (USA: GA) (2008/04/13):
I liked this one so much I read it in one sitting. It's an easy read but is very thought-provoking.



Gloria (USA: CA) (2008/05/14):
I loved the story, it's a very quick and easy read too!

LOVED IT!!! Very quick read for the whole family! (and the movie is great too!)



♥princessjulia♥ (USA: DE) (2008/06/09):
I also loved it although I'm not a big fan of the author. In fact, the only reason I read it was because it belonged to my Grandmother who recommended it and I'm glad she did. It's not only different but it's an easy read and it's enlightening in my opinion. I'd tell anyone who isn't reading it because they don't like the author to go ahead and give it a try anyway. You might be surprised, I was!

Colleen (USA: CT) (2008/09/10):
A sweet book, quick read. great for the whole family



Emily (USA: NY) (2009/01/11):
One of the best books I have ever read. Very quick read. After you read it I suggest watching the made-for-TV movie that was made a few years ago.



mamalizz (USA: CA) (2009/06/03):
I loved this book. I thought it was a great story and a very quick read!



VickieLB (USA: VA) (2009/08/12):
I started and finished this book in 1 day - unable to put it down. It was very touching, made me cry, and I identified with characters - meaning I considered it to be a very good book! I can highly recommend it!



Emily (USA: MO) (2010/03/03):
Very good, simple read. Good life lessons to be noted!



Adrian (USA: SC) (2010/05/29):
I believe this book is more about philosophy than religion. I love this book because it applies to a "Heaven" that can apply to anyone's version of spirituality. And even for those that aren't spiritual at all (like for the most part--me!) it is still a wonderful story worth reading.

Personally, I don't think the point of the story has anything to do with Heaven or religion. I really think it is more of a story about the puzzle of life and never knowing who's life you may be affecting.



Ruth Wassel (USA: CA) (2010/08/10):
Too much for me. Maybe I was in a bad mood but I disliked it as much as I liked a previous book I read of his. Now I have Tuesdays with Morrie and I hope I enjoy it more. Perhaps I should give this genre a rest and read something less philosophical and more grounded.



Anne (Italy) (2010/10/28):
to be honest that book has not left me with any particular feeling. I was a bit disappointed by it.
:-)



veranaz22 (USA: HI) (2010/11/18):
To put it bluntly, the main character, Eddie, dies and meets five people in heaven as the title suggests. He is a combat veteran and maintenance worker who dies from attempting to save a girl's life. He then goes through an insightful journey in his heaven as he meets the five people.
I would recommend this book to anyone, no matter what your favorite genre or walk of life. For how short this book is, it covers a pretty good range of stories and enlightenment. Acceptance and appreciation of life, the plot covered it full circle.
Five out of five.



Troy Yarbrough (USA: AL) (2011/03/28):
quick read, personal and interesting though has no resemblance to orthodox Christian views on heaven. Reminds me of "It's a Wonderful Life"

Such a great book. It really makes you stop and think.
