Got in a reading slump and now we're backk💪💪 ps this book is so insightful I love it

The ending :(

I think all Shia Muslims need to read this

Reading this for the first time at the age of 19 wishing I picked it up sooner 🥹

Im officially done. i need some time to process my thoughts about it before I write a review. The only thing I can say rn is that the ending was worth it. Despite all the parts I disliked.

There are so many things I hate about his book but I won't stop reading until I know why Monique was chosen for the biography. Also the amount of hype on it made me want to see if it's actually worth it. So far it's..not even close. But I'll keep going in case the rest of it changes my mind. (I dont think it will)

"If you hold back on the emotions-if you don't allow yourself to go all the way through them you can never get to being detached, you're too busy being afraid. You're afraid of the pain, you're afraid of the grief. You're afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails." (Because of the character limit i cannot share the rest of the paragraph 💔)

Im loving this book so far🥹🤍

I wasn't planning to read this book tbh and almost removed it from my tbr because of a few things I heard about it but ngl the hype and amount of people who loved it lowkey got me curious so I decided to read a free sample. Next thing I know, I reach chapter 4 and the book is now on my kindle app.😀 I'll see how it goes and keep you guys updated

"Everyone knows they're going to die, but nobody believes it. If we did, we would do things differently. "

What a wise and beautiful mindset morrie has 🥹 his words got me reflecting so deeply it's making me emotional

So far it's good but one thing caught my attention which is( as you know the story is true) how does the author know what happened in his professor's life in detail before he even reunited with him? Like how does he know the conversation he had with Koppel behind closed doors? Does his professor mention everything to him later on throughout the book or what? I'm genuinely confused😭
