[bookcover:1401303277] I just finished reading the book a few minutes ago, and it was great. I might be biased as Mitch Albom is one of my favourite authors.
A few chapters into the book was a bit slow.. Tuesdays With Morrie had more touching moments, and also moments when you look back in your life, and think.. think very hard.
What I loved about this book was that it teaches us about our childhood, and how to be better people, better grown-ups, better parents. It teaches a lot about regret, and valuing your life.
The ending was hard.. saying goodbye is always hard. NB: A tiny spoiler ahead. [spoiler]Even more when saying goodbye for the second time. I cried so hard when it happened.. it just brings back to the moment where I wished it was even possible to say goodbye to my dad when he left. But with Chick, he was given the opportunity to properly see his mother go..[/spoiler]
For One More Day is more like The Five People You Meet In Heaven.. by the end, then you see the bigger picture. I still maintain that Tuesdays With Morrie is my favourite book out of those I’ve read from Mitch Albom. But you can’t miss this novel for the world. Spend time on your own and read it. It will be worth your time.
On a different note (nothing to do whatsoever with the book), I feel so lost.
hey tina.. bulih tanya kah? how do u install the audio player for jordin sparks’ tattoo song? it’s neat. is it only for wordpress kah cos i’m using blogger.
can u tell me where u get the plugin? share share ah. thanx.
Can’t wait to read this book. But till now, I still prefer tuesdays with morrie to the 5 pple u meet in heaven.
Nisa, hey there! Of course lah boleh tanya. :) The audio player on this blog is a plugin for WordPress, but if you visit the plugin page, ada tu for non-WordPress users. (Specifically, the instructions are here.) I’m glad to help, and good luck!
Sha, I still prefer Tuesdays With Morrie after reading it. For One More Day’s TV movie, following the footsteps of Tuesdays With Morrie, will be out December 9th, 2007. I don’t know when it will be played here in Brunei, though.
