Someone I spoke to on booksta said that they believe books come into their life at a certain time for a reason & this book is a testament to that for me. I kept running into this book everywhere, finally I gave in and bought it, and I'm so grateful for it.

I loved the writing style and Mitch’s voice. I adored Morrie, (because who wouldn’t?), and I admired Mitch and their rekindled relationship. I myself, as a person with mdd & gad I find it very easy to self isolate when life gets hard, and unfortunately relationships tend to suffer that way. This book is one that gives inspiration to take life by the reins and live it while you’ve got it, while giving you the comfort you need to remind you the journey you’ve been on is valid and has meaning.

This is a book of love, friendship, family, loss, life, death, and learning how to live your best life. It's filled to the brim with emotion and though is a short read, physically, it is a story that will sit with you for quite a long time, likely forever. Nothing short of five stars for me, and this definitely will be a repeat read for me - one I can look to when I’m feeling a little lost.

Tuesdays with Morrie is a book that truly makes you reflect on the important things in life.

In this book Mitch Albom beautifully portrays his conversations with Morrie Schwartz, his beloved professor, in a genuine and heartfelt manner. The wisdom shared by Morrie is so profound, touching upon various aspects of life, love, and our mortality.

The writing effectively conveys the emotional journey of the author as he reconnects with his mentor. It focuses primarily on the conversations between Albom and Morrie, but I must admit that I would have liked to delve even deeper into certain topics.

Morrie's lessons are timeless. The insights shared in Tuesdays with Morrie have the potential to inspire personal growth and reflection. Those who are drawn to the themes of life, death, and the pursuit of happiness are more likely to be deeply moved by this narrative.

Such a beautiful book. It really touched me and changed the way I looked at certain things.

Feels like a philosphy book with a really good story on top
I love how the dialouge is formatted along with how it is just written/spoken by the characters
I notice a lot of aspects from DBT/CBT therapy in here which I think is really interesting and cool. I like that those aspects are included because it helps make those ideas more digestable and accessible to understand.
God its so depressing in the beginning, but honestly, Morrie as a character and how he paints life, makes it NOT depressing. He just shares how life is, and how to accept death. His messages are extremely powerful.
Just so many important lessons and such good quotes that I'm gonna be carrying with me for the rest of my life. I really think that everyone can get one important takeaway from this book.

Hard to put down once you start, although the story itself feels kinda slow, its not because you're literally speeding through it that's how good this book is. Finished it in pretty much one day.
