I'd watched the movie years ago and enjoyed it- finally got around to the book as well! I enjoyed Mitch Albom's writing style- simple and sweet, without being overly simplistic or cheesy. Especially when dealing with heavy matters such as suffering and death, in this case the slow deterioration of bodily function, a hopeful message is beautifully transmitted- revealing the joys of relationships, friendships and connection. I was pleasantly surprised, after reading the book, to find out it was an autobiography. Morrie sounds like he was a beautiful soul and I'm grateful for his wisdom that Mitch has now shared to the world.
