The book was a lot better than I expected.

It was a story about how to appreciate time told through three different perspectives.

My rating is based on how I felt reading it, not on the skill of the author in telling the story. I felt that, up until the time end, it was a slow-going tale. I found the MCs'  stories to be heavy as they each unfolded. The good news (for me) is that the one ending is on a positive note.

Not that great.
Just an average book.

Quite predictable.

One of those books that makes you want to change how you are living and to love the people you love a bit more.

Mitch Albom does it again with this one, and also finds a creative way to say that time is precious. Favourite quote from this one: "Ends are for yesterday's not tomorrow's."

I enjoyed experiencing Father Time's story in a way that I never would've thought. I enjoyed reading about the way humans are affected by time, and the many ways we choose to live with it (wanting more, wanting less, wanting it to slow down, wanting it to speed up).

I enjoyed seeing the characters grow and learn from their previous time before the ending of the novel.

I would recommend this one for sure.

I would recommend it for a person just starting to get into reading because it is a very easy,light sometimes boring book.
