Finally, the conclusion I've been waiting for! It's so good to see Annie again. I've always wondered what happened to her after she was saved. Just like the first book, this story also started at the end—with an accident. The part that I'm most excited about is when she gets to meet Eddie. I'm glad that she found her peace at last.
An excellent sequel to one of my favorite novels. It was fairly predictable, but well written and full of hope and inspiration. Definitely worth a read!

I liked the first book better...this one was more obviously for a religious audience.

Content Warnings
I recommend that you read the Five People You Meet in Heaven prior to this. It will all tie in together.

A good, short book and nice sequel to [b:The Five People You Meet in Heaven|3431|The Five People You Meet in Heaven|Mitch Albom|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1388200541s/3431.jpg|2561472]. For a 15 year gap between books, the author did pretty good. I read the previous book just recent enough to be familiar with the story still. More books need to be written on the subject of death and dying. Our culture is so in denial about Death (or maybe ignorant to the Afterlife) that we're prolonging, unnecessarily long, our lives so we just suffer needlessly while being kept alive by medication.
"Annie makes a mistake." Seemed like the author was subconsciously pushing this theme. I would like a follow up book now to talk about Annie's life, The author could really make a ton of spin offs from all the characters that are interconnected.
Good quotes:
"We think that by having secrets we're controlling things but in reality they're controlling us." YES. I hate secrets. (Think of Finnick O'Dair as you pronounce 'secrets'.)
"Sometimes we need to tell people that we've forgiven them, not because they need to hear it but we need to hear it."
"The wrongs we do open doors to do right."
"Losing a child is a feeling of being utterly full and utterly vacant." I don't want to lose a child, much less a spouse. That'd be the worst.
