The Five People You Meet In Heaven Book
Good morning Ms Ma, today I would like to introduce a book to you. It’s called The
Five People You Meet in Heaven is a novel by
Mitch Albom. It follows the life and death of a maintenance man named Eddie. It was published in 2003 by Hyperion.
The story began with a sad ending. Eddie, a maintenance worker at an amusement park, was only minutes away from his death. All endings are also a beginnings, the ‘ending’ attracted me with a countdown of how Eddie spent his last moments doing his work as his days were enduring. It happened in a flash when Eddie was trying to save a little girl from a falling cart of the Ferris Wheel. But before Eddie could figure out what was happening, he arrived at a place that he had never expected—the heaven. Where he encounters five people who significantly impacted him while he was alive. They are Marguerite,
Joseph Corvelzchik or The Blue Man, The Captain,
Ruby and Emile.
Eddie learns the true meaning of his life when he confronts five people in heaven from his past. There are moments he needs to relive and others he never even knew happened. These are somewhat shocking and breathtaking for both Eddie and the reader.
The part I like most in this book is the chapter—Epilogue. This chapter was written with the scene of the amusement park when
Eddie saved the little girl. The author emphasized again on how life and death form parts of the whole life and he ended the chapter with my favourite sentence in this book —“The world is full of stories, but stories are all one.”
This book is particularly good for those who feel lost and confused in his or her life. This book shows people with great ideas and gives advice to your life.
It will help you to shape your character and your attitude towards life and people around you.
After reading this book, I know that there are no regrets in life, just lessons to be learnt in life. It is a great book and I hope u will read it soon I am sure you are going
