 Wonderful Book!! December 12, 2008
This book makes you think about your own life, and the afterlife. I couldn't put it down, great book to take on a long trip. I will buy more books by this author. He is a wonderful writer.
I wonder who my 5 people will be. Hopefully my 6th grade math teacher, who smelled like coffee, and hated my guts, and made me flunk math, wont be one of them.
who will be your five people? December 5, 2008
when the movie previewed on tv one night my family and i all set down to watch it. i thought it was the greatest movie ever. then for a reading project my brother had to read the book, when he was finished i had to see if it was anything like the book. after reading the book i came to one conclusion, the book was better than the movie!!! this book makes you think about, if heaven is really like this, who would be your five people? my family and i all sat down and talked about this one night and it makes you think about life and who all you affect with out even knowing that you are affecting anyone. this is a great book to read if you want to think about life for a while
Fantastic book, matches my personal philosophy December 2, 2008
This book is not preachy don't worry, that was my biggest fear in initially reading it. It turns out that it is a good story with insight into a concept of life that of connections that is really interesting
Sappy emotionalism but difficult to put down November 25, 2008
Despite myself I could not put it down. It is the message of the holiday favorite, It's a Wonderful Life (60th Anniversary Edition). Only this telling delves deeper into many philosophical questions concerning life. It follows a man who has died and must pass through 5 people (as everybody does in heaven) who explain the meaning to his life. What seemed pointless and a waste to him is revealed to be poetic justice with rich meaning. Yes, it is sappy and emotional. But the story is gripping and the writing style is an enjoyable and rich telling. An emotional but worthwhile tale in lovely pros. Very well done.
 Reads like a bad children's book November 24, 2008

It has the feeling of a children's book with lame lessons, except that children's books are more interesting and have better characters.
