For One More Day - Mitch Albom ... and decides, one night, to end his life. Somewhere between this world and the next, he encounters his mother, who died years ago, and he spends one last day with her - a day he never had on earth. This 'ordinary' day covers the whole of their existence, and reveals how Charley, like many children, was constantly forced to choose between his mother and his father. He gets the chance many of us yearn for - to ask the questions never asked while our parents are alive. In the end, Charley learns how little he really knew about his mother, how her love saved their family, and how deeply he wants the chance to save his own.

What followed is the one seemingly ordinary day so many of us yearn for: a chance to make good with a lost parent, to explain the family secrets and to seek forgiveness."

Premium Review For One More Day - Mitch Albom: One More Dissapointing Story (866 words)

Rating:

Mitch Albom's books always sound so enticing and from the moment I read the blurb on the back cover I just know I have to purchase it. The last Albom book I read The Five People You Meet In Heaven was exactly like this but left me feeling a little disappointed after I had read it and unfortunately 'For One More Day' also left me feeling the same. The book's blurb draws you into a world you think you are going to left and entices you to read a book you think you'll never want to put down but for me this just wasn't how my reading of the book left me feeling. The blurb's short snappy sentences and intriguing plotline premise seem in my opinion to be written ...  Read the complete review

"For One More Day" is a story about a man who has lost everything in his life. His job and also his family. One night he decided to commit suicide by crashing his car and somehow he was brought to his hometown and see his late mother alive again and do what she usually did when she was alive and acted like nothing has happened. Charley, the name of this guy, remembered what he had done to his mother. I really like this book. It remind me of my mother and how I love her so much. I think it was what Mitch Albom wanted to show to us, about how we should be thankful of what we already had in our life. Another thing I love about this book is how Mitch ...  Read the complete review

Tackles some characters realistically. Tackles some in a limited manner.

Hugely readable pile of nonsense! Slightly dull quest, hugely unoriginal

Very funny with great characters Nothing really


Great narrative and characters Too much detail at times, therefore makes the book a needless 500 pages
