this falls short compared to it’s predecessor which honestly didn’t need a sequel following the same formula. it made things very predictable and while i liked the characters i didn’t connect with them in the same way.

I’ll say it once and I’ll say it again about this author. If anyone can make me cry endlessly while reading, it’s a win. I cannot believe how vested I became in this novel as much as the last! What a beautiful, tear jerking, ending to a great story and outlook on the afterlife. It has me curious as to who my five would be in a world like that. Interesting.

I am a HUGE Mitch Albom fan, and again I was drawn into this story! I usually am not a fan of sequels because they tend to not be as good as the original, but this one did not disappoint. Albom has the best messages, symbols, and theories about life that make you think and look differently at your own life. If you were a fan of the first book: The Five People You Meet in Heaven, you have to read this one!

if you enjoyed the five people you meet in heaven, you will enjoy this as well. it tells the story of a woman learning to accept her life, accept her “mistakes,” and learn to love. just as touching and profound as the first and teaches us that it is okay not to understand things in our lives on earth; we will understand them one day.

Mitch Album did it again!!!!!!! I absolutely love this author. Even though his books have a lot of sad elements, his stories are always so touching and beautiful. His book ‘for one more day’ was the first and only summer reading book I ever enjoyed.
This book….. so beautiful. I listed to the audiobook narrated by the author and the ending made me bawl my eyes out, out of both sadness and joy. 10/10 book and 10000/10 author
