The book that impressed me.

I feel this has always been with me. Books that never seem to cease satisfy me and music that never seem to cease to elate me.
This is one of such books. A must keep of all sorts. I have read “Tuesdays with morrie” of Mitch Altbom and ofcourse “five people you meet in heaven”
I have always been a buyer of books. Something itches when there is an exhibition in the office (and there are many) and I don’t buy a single book. But yes. For me mostly its never read once and finish it off and never touch the book again (you should see the well worn volumes of the knitting circle and PS I love you). I love such books that I read again and again. (Madhur Jaffrey’s climbing mango trees).
Tuesdays with morrie never ceased to elate me. I was a bit doubtful about “five people you meet in heaven” I didn’t want preaching (the monk who sold his Ferrari has enough) nor very light reading.
It is this book that has it all. Small pieces of advices sewn together with a lovely story.
It recounts the life and death of an old maintenance man named Eddie. After dying in an accident, Eddie finds himself in 5 other heavens of the 5 people he will meet in heaven, where he encounters five people who have significantly affected his life, whether he realized at the time or not. A book that actually made me stick to it till I finished it. A keep definitely.
