This is one of my favorite books of all time. A short and easy read but a great book that lets your mind drift into your own personal history and think who your 5 people would be...
You cannot go wrong with Mitch Albom. As someone who comes from a religious background and has been working on what heaven means to me, this was a beautiful perspective on it. I love the idea that heaven is meant to understand your life on earth. I also think it was brilliant to show how all lives are intertwined in ways we don't think. This book brought some serious reflection on how I see my life. 
I didn't love this book, and when I finally read it, I had a sense of deja vu the whole time. Made me think I had read it before and didn't like it enough to remember I had read it.
