“The book changed the way I behave every day. The main character remains positive about everything, even though he is destined to die soon. I especially love the maxim: ‘The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. And you have to be strong enough to say, if the culture doesn’t work, don’t buy it.’”

I loved this book. Not for its philosophical views on life, which some of the lines I feel like we hear all the time. I loved it for the relationship Mitch had with Morris. I am lucky enough to have a similar relationship with one of my college mentors, which made reading this so emotional for me.

The first time I read this book it changed something in me, made me want to do more, be more authentic and make lasting meaningful connections. The second read through gave me the same general feeling, but was overall less impactful. Definitely does have some Hallmark style lines and themes but overall a solid and quick read.
