The title is intriguing, at least for me. The idea of afterlife is too broad. So, people can have their own theory after life. Packed in small size with a neutral colour, for some people, it could be a pass way. But believe or not, by those, I feel hooked up and end up having a big willingness to purchase it even though I already bought several books before (Oh money, I am really sorry). This is my first time to read a book by Mitch Albom (Rosa, where have you been?). I know he is a well-known writer with his most popular book called “Tuesday with Morrie”. I actually do not care that much about the writer, as long as the book has a quite good review, I will still look it up.
I bought this book through an online store on Instagram (Shout out to @fatchickenbook. Ps It’s not an endorsed post but I recommend it to you Guys who love reading with minimal budget). When it came to my office, I could not wait to go home fast to read this book. This brilliant idea of illustrating about after life is an interesting topic. While many writers out there are battling to create fantastic plots that have unpredictable endings, here is Mr. Albom who created a simple yet meaningful plot of a story that can make us, a reader, to fulfil this life with goodness and respect. For me, the best book is a book that can make the readers to be a better person because of the impact given.
This book is talking about Eddie, a mechanic at Ruby Pier (A name of Amusement Park) who was dead after the tragic accident on his own Free Fall. The plot is mixing, a forward and then a backward. After telling about present time, it gets back to the past when Eddie has his birthday. So, it was like watching a moment, then jump to the past, back to the moment, and jump to the past again on loop. But I have no problem with this since it has a correlation with Eddie’s people who he met. Some of the people he met in heaven did not surprise me but some of them startled me. This book keeps me thinking about who the five people are, if this is real, I will meet in heaven because they are obviously people who have a significant impact on our life. Note : Do not think that people who have a significant impact on our life are people who know us well nor we know them well. It can be people who we never knew or even noticed when we were still alive. At least, it is a lesson that I got. The minus side of this book is the lack of emotional effect because everything seems rushed. I could not really feel the sadness. It could be a really amazing book if Albom could put more emotional dialogue. Overall, I like it.
