Mitch Albom’s The Five People You Meet in Heaven follows Eddie, an elderly maintenance worker at an amusement park, who dies in an accident and wakes up in an afterlife where he meets five people whose lives intersected with his in ways he never fully understood. Each encounter reveals something about the impact he had—good, bad, or unseen—and helps him make sense of his own life, regrets, and relationships. The book’s core idea is that every life touches others in ways we rarely recognize.
