Helpful Score: 3

What a great book! It's a quick read, so it would be easy to dismiss it as being too simplistic, but it really contains some food for thought.

Especially near the beginning, I thought the author was being a little selfish, and that the book was more about him than Morrie, but I think that this was a great way to avoid this being a preachy book that said "You should do this", "You should do that", etc. You were seeing this through Mitch Albom's eyes and seeing how what Morrie said affected Albom and the way he lived.

This deserves being read every so often as a reality-check.
