'The Five People You Meet in Heaven' is an amazing story that has changed the way I think about the after-life. Main character, Eddie, a former war veteran, is killed while trying to save a little girl from a falling cart and later, meets five people who had had some sort of connection with his life, whether they being close family members or total strangers. In my opinion, this book was well written and deserves a 5+ rating. I strongly recommend this novel to anyone wanting to read it.

Would you like to read a book about adventure, heroism and friendship? If so, then 'The Book of Three' is for you. The main character, Taran, an assistant pig-keeper looking for an adventure, finds himself in great danger after his pig, Hen Wen, runs away. In my opinion, this book was not an interesting read, only because I am not a big fan of fantasy novels. If you are though, I recommend this book for you.
