This book definately is one of my favourites. The plot itself was not very complex or witty but it was such a wonderful story that left you with a very good feeling. The story, more than anything is about a mother's love and how despite all the awful things that occur within the main character's life he finds he can rely on that. The story is also about the main character trying to remenber things that may have occured in his past that could be the reason for things that are happening in his life. We see him learn more and more about himself and at the end of the novel we are left feeling very hopeful.
I would most definately say that this novel is worth reading and if this book isn't on your bookshelf, make sure it soon is!

Quite honestly one of the best books i have ever read (and i read a LOT!). Felt total sympathy for the main character and reading the book really made me stop and think. Rang my mum that very evening just to say hello! Read the book in one sitting as needed to know that everything worked out ok. Was not disappointed by the finish, a great little twist. Read this book!!

This is a fantastic book. I read it and couldn't put it down til I'd finished it. It is so soul-searchingly, heart-rendingly fabulous. It is a great concept. 'What if...' is a question that haunts most of us, I think, and this book addresses that question. What if you had one more day to say all the things you never said, to do all the things you never did, to have the one last hug that you never had. How fantastic would that be? I cried while reading the book, and at the end, I felt absolutely drained. It is so emotional, and I know that it has made me look at my life and think about what I do and don't say to those that I love, and realise that we don't have as much time as we think, and that things shouldn't be put off for another day, just in case there is no other day. I totally love this book, and recommend it whole-heartedly to everyone. It is beautiful.

This was a great book and I found that I just couldn't put it down. Mitch Albom is a brilliant author and so far I have loved his entertaining books with his unusual "take" on life! The ending was a surprise and the story itself kept me wondering just what was going to happen right until the end! This is definately a book to read.
