Let me start off in saying that I am not a big reader, but I loved Tuesdays with Morrie. This is an amazing book, and honestly no other book has made me have the same feelings as this book.
My entire class was read this book by our teacher in 8th grade. I don't exactly know why she was reading sections of it a day to us, but I am glad she did.
The book is about an experience in Mitch Albom's life where he decided to meet up with his old college professor every Tuesday. I enjoyed the book very much, and am pleased with the length of the book. It is fairly long, and you won't be able to put it down until you finish it. The story is amazing, and based on a true story. After finishing reading the novel, I was very eager to look more into the story of Morrie Schwartz. I was able to find plenty of information about the novel, and even a movie based on the book.
Overall the book is just plain great. It honestly teaches you many things, such as treasure the ones you love and learn as much as you can from them. I fell in love with Morrie Schwartz, a person I did not know existed until I read the book. I can't explain how great I think this book is and how it has touched me. I have never seen some people cry before up until reading Tuesdays with Morrie. Do yourself a favor and read this amazing true story!

I definitely agree with you. This is a book that even non-readers can benefit from. It's really great that your 8th grade teacher read this to you. I think it's a great book for school to help the kids think more deeply. I gave it to my tutoring students and they absolutely loved it.
