Book Review: the first phone call from heaven






POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT


What's not to like about a book written by Mitch Albom? I 
have enjoyed his books for years, and his newest novel does 
not disappoint. 


When various people in the small town of Coldwater, MI begin
to receive phone calls from heaven, the other residents begin
to learn more about themselves and their belief in heaven, or
lack thereof. Soon pilgrims from the world over are arriving
in tiny Coldwater for a chance to be a part of the miracles.

Sully, a man recently released from prison for his
inadvertent role in a heart-breaking tragedy that killed his wife
is particularly affected as his son begins to believe in the
miracles and waits for a call from his late mother. To protect
his son, Sully does his best to debunk the so-called miracles,
and learns lessons in forgiveness, grace, and faith along the
way.
