Helpful Score: 5

In this book we follow Eddie, an ordinary man, as he reflects on the impact his life had on the lives of many others, lives intersecting unknowingly, with help from five people he meets in heaven after his death. Much like 'Tuesdays with Morrie,' this book is filled with sentiment and life lessons, although I thought 'Tuesdays with Morrie' was much better. 'The Five People You Meet in Heaven' is a quick, light read, a guilty pleasure if you will. I enjoyed reading it even though it is highly overrated. I understand why Mitch Albom is so popular, nonetheless, and I'm sure his books will be around for a long time.
