Five People You Meet In Heaven

1) The Five People You Meet In Heaven was written by Mitch Albom and was published in 2003

2)The general purpose of the book is for Eddie too look back at his life and realize that he wasn't a waste (like he tells himself).

3)The narrative hook for me was "Oh no the cart is about to fall!"

4) arthritis-painful inflimation and stiffness of the joints
Shingles- a disease characterized by skin eruptions
Halibut- a large flat fish in the North Atlantic
Cacophony- harsh discordance of sound
Hydraulic- operated, moved by, or employing water on other liquids

5)So far I have really enjoyed this book. I like the Mitch Albom idea of having his character meet five people who have directly or indirectly affected his life. I am eager to find out if Eddie was able to save the girls from the falling cart or if his effort was futile.
