The Five People You Meet in Heaven: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! *

Eddie is a wounded war veteran, an old man who has lived, in his mind, an uninspired life. His job is fixing rides at a seaside amusement park. On his 83rd birthday, a tragic accident kills him as he tries to save a little girl from a falling cart. He awakes in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a destination; it's a place where your life is explained to you by five people, some of whom you knew, others who may have been strangers. One by one, from childhood to soldier to old age, Eddie's five people revisit their connections to him on earth, illuminating the mysteries of his "meaningless" life, and revealing the haunting secret behind the eternal question: "Why was I here?"

*Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Lesson to be learn

I enjoyed the story line and the meeting of the five people in heaven. Everyone had a story to tell and each character had a purpose in his life. I loved it

Amazing

I absolutely loved this book! It made me cry with each person, and I liked how it came full circle in the end. Enjoyed it very much.

I was completely drawn in!

This was a very pleasant book to listen too. I was completely drawn into the narrative. I recommend this book to many family and friends, as someone recommended it to me. I just bought the book for my Dad for Father's Day. I hope anyone who listens to this book will enjoy it just as much as I did.

Life Changing!

Mitch Albom is my very favorite author. Again, another one of his books that is Life Changing! I love that he also narrates his books. His writing is so simple yet so enchanting that I feel forever touched after each writing. He has a unique way of reaching deep into your heart and soul! I will never be the same!!

Excellent Audiobook from Mitch A

I had previously read the book but listening to the story narrated by Mitch accompanied by a soundtrack was something very special. Brilliant!

Poignant

A very sweet story of an oh-so-typical man who never felt he fit in. From the five characters he meets, he finally learns, he fit in exactly where he was meant to be. A good lesson for us all…

A Sweet Story

After reading/listening to Tuesday’s with Morrie, I went straight to this story. I enjoyed it but not near as much as Tuesday’s with Morrie. The end of the book was definitely a tear-jerker. It makes us all think of our own life and interactions with others.

How much depth this book has

This is the 99th book of the year 11/21/24. All the books I’ve read have been fiction. Out of all the books this was a breath of fresh air. I needed this escape

A "Ghost of Christmas" feel

Always interesting to explore what we see in our life compared to how the same circumstances appear and are experienced by others. Likeable flawed characters and insight into how we all are connected.

Beautiful

Read this years ago and decided to listen to it. Mitch Albom does a great job reading it with sounds and effects.
