This was a super quick read! I finished it last night. It wasn't what I expected but I enjoyed it. I normally don't read this kind of book but I've heard so much about it... had to give it a try. I'm glad I got to read it.

I'm offering it up as an int'l bookray so that the journey can continue. :-)

Journal Entry 8 by hakkalina from Budapest, Pest Hungary on Tuesday, August 26, 2008
Hello Dears!!
The book arrived to me today - 2008.08.26.
It is a Big Moment in my life, this is My First BookCrossing Book. So I am celebrating now! :-)
Angela861, thank you not forgetting my wish!!!
I am not a fast reader - considering that English is not my mother language - but this book is a tiny one, with easy words, sentences, so I will finish it soon.

Update 28/08/2008
Last night I finished the book! I couldn't put it down. :-)

Update 05/09/2008
I chose this book because of its title, and it was a precious reading. The story of this book captived me. Its philosophy is interesting about how the happenings, hereby persons, are connections with each other even if they are not conscious of it. And this story confirmed me the importance of "why-questions". The person who can asks can find the answers, which help to make the "good" decisions.

Journal Entry 12 by Kayellbee from Chorley, Lancashire United Kingdom on Monday, January 5, 2009
It arrived today! Last day at home before back to work, so very welcome! I have been looking forward to reading this since reading Tuesdays with Morrie, which I have put in my Permanent Collection. Thank you all, for sending it on.

Journal Entry 13 by Kayellbee from Chorley, Lancashire United Kingdom on Sunday, January 11, 2009
A super read! In fact, I finished the book in one day - it's ages since I did that! Admittedly, it is a short and easy read, but a lovely, engaging and interesting story that sets you thinking and reflecting. . . I wonder who will appear in my Five?
Have PM'd Laure and will post on as soon as address recieved.

The book arrived yesterday

Journal Entry 15 by winglaure69wing from Paris, Ile-de-France France on Tuesday, March 24, 2009
My mother used to say heaven was marvellous because you'll-know-everything.

I'm not convinced by the five lessons and found some of them a little unnerving. But the different points of view are interesting and it's true lives interract even if we don't know about it. If you see the book as the simple story of a man, it's a nice read.

The 6th JE says it is a ray, so I'm going to try to find a new reader.

Journal Entry 16 by elisala from Paris, Ile-de-France France on Wednesday, April 15, 2009
I was intrigued by the title so caught this on the april meet-up (not knowing it's a ray!) - I'll try to start this not too late

Journal Entry 17 by elisala from Paris, Ile-de-France France on Monday, May 11, 2009
although i don't like this kind of writing (too much emphasis, maybe?), i really got caught by this book and read it in no time (it just takes me some time to journal it in english ;p).
i love the idea that is presented in this book and how it was "lived" (no pun intended) by the heroe.
thanks for this discovery!
