Dear Cafetalk Community,
How are you? I'm doing fine as usual. If you're interested in reading English, please read my message below.
Today, I wanted to invite you to read a very good book with me. It's from the same author who wrote the best-seller, "Tuesdays with Morrie." The book I would like to suggest is called, "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom. This is not a brand new book, but it's not so old to be a classic either. This book was made into a movie starring Jon Voigt and Jeff Daniels. (The photo inserts are from the movie.)
Just to give you an idea, the book is 194 pages long. Instead of making this a separately packaged lesson, I encourage you to take either my 15-min., 30-min., or 50-min. lesson depending on how fast you want to progress. That way, you can take the amount of time you would like to spend on each lesson.
You can proceed with reading the book at your own pace! You can either shadow me or read on your own. If there are parts that you don't understand, you can always ask me during the lesson. This is an excellent lesson for students who want to read a good book in English but just can't get motivated enough to finish an entire book on their own.

[Review from Amazon:]
Eddie is a grizzled war veteran who feels trapped in a meaningless life of fixing rides at a seaside amusement park. His days are a dull routine of work, loneliness, and regret.
Then, on his 83rd birthday, Eddie dies in a tragic accident, trying to save a little girl from a falling cart. He awakens in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a lush Garden of Eden, but a place where your earthly life is explained to you by five people. These people may have been loved ones or distant strangers. Yet each of them changed your path forever.
One by one, Eddie's five people illuminate the unseen connections of his earthly life. As the story builds to its stunning conclusion, Eddie desperately seeks redemption in the still-unknown last act of his life: Was it a heroic success or a devastating failure The answer, which comes from the most unlikely of sources, is as inspirational as a glimpse of heaven itself.
In The Five People You Meet in Heaven, Mitch Albom gives us an astoundingly original story that will change everything you've ever thought about the afterlife--and the meaning of our lives here on earth. With a timeless tale, appealing to all, this is a book that readers of fine fiction, and those who loved Tuesdays with Morrie, will treasure.
