Tuesdays with Morrie is one of my favorite books and has touched me deeply. I hope I will be lucky enough to meet a professor as wise as Morrie some day. I envy the special bond Mitch has with his professor and the invaluable life lessons…

I had read this book many years ago at the recommendation of my mother. I am unsure why, but I remember not liking it or getting much out of it. Maybe because I was younger? More selfish? I don't know. What I do know is that this book is a…

Why did I decide to read this on my lunch break? Many tears were shed. Morrie's outlook on life and positivity truly changed the way I live my own life and the way I interact with others. Morrie taught me to value every person I see in the…

So much meaning in such a simple story. Glad I read it and would recommend to anyone struggling with purpose

It is definitely worth a read. Don't read it like a memoir, instead read it as story, story between two people and story of an old man's life perspective. It's light reading with much wisdom, we tend to forget in this busy life.

Ok. So I’ll admit that I’ve read this book before in school. It was the first book that I truly loved. This book covered so many important questions about life. I loved the insight and it helped me look at my life and think about changes…

Full of truths that give meaning to life which we are aware of, but often forget about in our hustle-bustle lives. Things like conversations about family, relationships, death, money, possessions and most importantly, love. The warm…

Tuesdays with Morrie was an incredibly underwhelming read. While it was sweet and moving in it's own way, their Tuesdays sessions about "life's greatest sessions" carry little weight, and was too sappy to be taken seriously.

Profoundly beautiful and thought provoking. This is my all-time favourite book from Mitch Albom and I love them all. We should all be following the advice of Morrie.

We can carry ourselves down the sidewalk, wash our hands and faces, and sleep without wondering if the night would be our last, speak without choking because our lungs are in the middle of a slow, painful collapse. Amidst the fluctuating…

After years of my wife recommending I read Tuesdays With Morrie, I finally got around to it. The wisdom shared by Morrie Schwartz to Mitch Albom is life changing. I suspect whoever reads this book will change their focus in life and …

Tuesdays With Morrie: an easy read, but nonetheless thought-provoking and profound. Not to be read too quickly. Take the time to enjoy the messages it offers. A story about friendship and special connections. The book gave me a little…

Yes, the message is clear: "Love is above all", but man is the writing cheesy!

While the message is a good one, the delivery is too treacly for me. Four or five for the message, one for the saccharine prose.

A book I lend for several times. Easy to read and make you ponder your priorities and using your time.

Not as good as I thought it would be.

Tuesdays with Morrie is amazing. It was a book that I couldn't put down because Morrie just tells it like it is - what's important in life. Life isn't about what society says it should be. Life is about love and family.

An important book with important lessons.
