The only thing that disturbed me about this book was the number of characters. There was a lot, so much so that I tended to forget who I was reading about at times. But then again one can blame my bad memory for that and not the writing itself because Mitch Albom is a great writer. I really appreciated his News reports (via the character of Amy) as they were written very professionally, like reports I would hear from my friends who work in the media. But then again, that’s no surprise as Albom himself is a sports journalist.
