    "This is a story about a family and, as there is a ghost involved, you might call it a ghost story. But every family is a ghost story. The dead sit at our tables long after they have gone." So begins For One More Day, a novel by the author of Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven. This slender fable poses a simple yet almost infinitely resonant question: What would you do if you could spend one more day with a lost loved one? Charley Benetto's miraculous reunion with his deceased mother offers him -- and us -- a springboard into possibilities. A fiction that seems palpably real.

    If this is a true story, I would say it has some tension to catch one's eyes. Author has this idea to elaborate on "one more day" with the one you love, but he wasn't doing a good job to really make reader think about how you would like to spend this precious day with your love one.

    The protagonist had spent most of "his day" with her mom to reflect what they had been through. Not until the last minute that he would say "sorry" about his conduct to cause himself pain for the rest of his life. The revelation has little merit besides to give himself a closure on his absence of her mom's death. He only need one minute but one full day for his purpose.

    As for so many other books, the idea is revealed for your reflection, and the story is started and ended on the title.

  • Made me Cry

  • This book is amazing, and it helped give me insight into how someone else deals with death and loss- and the loss of one's own life, and value of one's own life. It really made me think, and cry, and put myself in someone else's shoes.
