The premise is so interesting. The narrator is Music, and so many allusions to tempo and mood are sprinkled throughout. I laughed out loud at a reference to a “voice like a shaky bassoon”.

This book was life changing for me. Between the voice and philosophy, this book often crosses my mind.

One word... Wow! What a remarkable story about Frankie Presto's life! I could not put this book down. I read it in just 2 days. What an incredible story that came to life in this book. I almost cried at times. What a story!

Amazing twists and turns, a blending of the supernatural, hope, suffering, love and dreams. Throughout the book, love and children (their innocence) have added life, perspective and hope to lost and jaded adults. It got slightly slow and draggy, Frankie’s floating journey was slightly difficult to keep track of. Would recommend

Mitch Albom paints such lovely, lovely stories. This book is a delight, and I love the way it's told.
