The Next Person You Meet in Heaven

The Sequel to The Five People You Meet in Heaven

By: Mitch Albom

Narrated by: Mitch Albom

In this enchanting sequel to the number one bestseller The Five People You Meet in Heaven, Mitch Albom tells the story of Eddie’s heavenly reunion with Annie—the little girl he saved on earth—in an unforgettable novel of how our lives and losses intersect.

Fifteen years ago, in Mitch Albom’s beloved novel, The Five People You Meet in Heaven, the world fell in love with Eddie, a grizzled war veteran- turned-amusement park mechanic who died saving the life of a young girl named Annie. Eddie’s journey to heaven taught him that every life matters. Now, in this magical sequel, Mitch Albom reveals Annie’s story.

The accident that killed Eddie left an indelible mark on Annie. It took her left hand, which needed to be surgically reattached. Injured, scarred, and unable to remember why, Annie’s life is forever changed by a guilt-ravaged mother who whisks her away from the world she knew. Bullied by her peers and haunted by something she cannot recall, Annie struggles to find acceptance as she grows. When, as a young woman, she reconnects with Paulo, her childhood love, she believes she has finally found happiness.

As the novel opens, Annie is marrying Paulo. But when her wedding night day ends in an unimaginable accident, Annie finds herself on her own heavenly journey—and an inevitable reunion with Eddie, one of the five people who will show her how her life mattered in ways she could not have fathomed.

Poignant and beautiful, filled with unexpected twists, The Next Person You Meet in Heaven reminds us that not only does every life matter, but that every ending is also a beginning—we only need to open our eyes to see it.

A Must Read!

loved every second of this beautiful, heartwarming glimpse of heaven and how every thing in life , good or bad, is designed for a purpose.

Lightening has struck twice!

I enjoyed the sequel just as much as its predecessor. The writer continues to draw me into the story with every word. The ending was a beautiful twist that made me smile. I look forward to reading more books from Mitch Albom.

Listened to both. Thought provoking. Recommend.

Mitch is a great writer. To be able to write these stories and make you actually see what he's pinning is amazing to me. I wanted my own forgiveness I wanted my own salvation I wanted my own Grace. Excellent story told.
