Mitch Albom couldn't write a bad book if he tried. This was engaging and had nice life lessons.
That said, I felt like his other books came from his heart, and this one was more of a creative experiment.
Definitely worth the read, but didn't wow me like he ususally does.

I’ve never really thought about ‘time’ before, well certainly not in the way this book does, but while reading this it made me realise how constraining man’s subjugation to worshipping time actually is.

He creates instruments to measure the passing of time, but as a consequence, God banishes him to a cave to live alone... read the full review here: https://www.amysbookshelf.co.uk/2014/11/the-time-keeper_13/

This fucked me up a little bit.
Time is definitely enough for each of us but we still can't find it enough. We always ask for more like how Victor wants, and we always wants to stop time like how Sarah. Dor lived for a long time and time was stopped for him but all he wants is for Aili to be alive or to accompany her.
