Audiobook (4.5 for Production)
I'm a sucker for books that try to bring religious topics into a more relatable fashion. That is especially true for this book considering Mitch Albom is a non-fiction/sports reporter. I really enjoyed listening to the audio of this book because of the audio production. Reading this, I'm not sure it would have the same effect if I didn't listen to the audiobook. Its a quick listen and I would recommend to anyone that is just getting started in audiobooks.

a quick read. i completely understand the love for this book and the dislike too. for me it fell right in the middle. i liked some parts and others did absolutely nothing for me. at times it felt like it was trying to be philosophical which is not really my thing, but i liked the character of eddie and i liked the story as a whole.
