A simple and functional read, but deeply impactful. The message is clear - time spent worrying about time is not time spent living at all.

The intertwining stories are deeply moving and cohesive, but the most impressive thing about the book is the no-nonsense, direct way of story telling Albom employs. Even so, it never feels cheap, trite or boring. Every word has its utility.

A good read for those who wants something emotional but light, simple and fast.
