Tuesdays with Morrie came recommended by a friend, a very close friend of mine, so it's - that's how I read about a book and ordered it from the Web. It is a book about a dying professor, old professor, Morrie Schwartz, after being diagnosed with ALS; and on his deathbed, he met up with his - one of his old favorite student Mitch Albom. By then he was already a very famous sports columnist, and together they did a last final project together, which is about lessons in life, and that's their last course.

This book has touched me in many, many ways; and I find the book was very simply written and that Mitch Albom has a way of writing everything in simple terms. And it's again a very easy read; you can finish it within a day. The first two chapters was just very poetic. After you - after I started reading, I couldn't put it down; and I think of many people have found the same way when they read this book.

This is one book that I read over and over again, and every time it's - I gain new insights from it. And so the main difference between this book and a lot of the other self-help books is it's touched me every single time I read it. This book can be very helpful to people that are in the transition stage. You know, people maybe going from high school to college, you're in a state of confusion. Where are you gonna be starting? But it'd be nice to set your life priorities straight from the beginning, and this book can certainly help you with that if you keep an open mind reading it. I would definitely give Tuesdays with Morrie a five. A full five, and I strongly endorse this book.
