I just read a book called 5 people you would meet in heaven and these are my thoughts about it…

‘the five people you meet in heaven’ is a book written by Mitch Albom, this book was released in 2003. It is a story about a man called Eddie, a person who always thought of his life to not be as fulfilling as he had imagined. His big dreams were left unachieved due to certain circumstances prevailing in his life. After death, when Eddie reaches heaven he meets 5 people who explain the meaning of the time he spent on earth, and how it impacted the others around him.

I liked this book for various reasons, which are that it.…

· Is a Light book to read- the book is very self-explanatory. Each detail is put across to the readers, you don’t need to beat yourself up and figure out something. These kinds of books are perfect at the times when you just want to have a relaxing read, without the need of using your brain too much.

· Puts the truths of life, in a different perspective- the book in question is based on “death”, now this is usually a topic, that indicates sadness; but the author of the novel has written about it in a different view. Like what if death was not the end of everything and was in fact a closure. A closure discussing the significance of your life, your purpose, the reality that you had lived and hadn’t understood. 

· Makes you wonder- this piece of literature make you wonder about how you could have unknowingly impacted someone’s life for the better or worst. It plants a seed of curiosity in your mind about how many people’s life you had changed completely because of that one decision.

So these are my reasons for thinking of this book as an ideal one to read. It has nothing for you to figure out, the narrative is a one that just talks about the endless possibilities present in this universe, our universe.
