review 1: Hmm. Honestly I had to force myself to finish this book. I'm afraid that it's long and poorly written, all tell and no show, and very repetitive. The author has clearly led a very a troubled life, from drug problems in her youth to depression and several suicide attempts (or at least plans). I'm happy for her that she seems finally to have found her own form of peace and happiness, and in a way I think the book is a kind of therapy for her. She has also had rare insight into the regrets of the dying, having worked in palliative care with many "dear" men and women.The top five regrets of the dying are incredibly important lessons and we would all do well listening to them before it's too late:(1) I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life other... mores expected of me.(2) I wish I didn’t work so hard.(3) I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.(4) I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.(5) I wish I’d let myself be happier.Read them, think about what they mean, and try to live your life to avoid such regrets. But beyond that, I wouldn't recommend that you read this book...
review 2: Considerando gli aspetti tecnici, non è per niente un bel libro. E' verboso, noioso, molto detto e poco mostrato, con un tono da predicatrice New Age che mi ha a tratti annoiato e a tratti infastidito. Non si rivolge a tutti, ma solo a persone che condividano già un certo background che non mi appartiene; dà troppe cose per scontate, e cose non facilmente condivisibili e comprensibili. L'ho letto perché ultimamente rifletto molto sull'uso che faccio del mio tempo e sapere quali sono i cinque principali rimpianti delle persone in punto di morte mi sembrava qualcosa che valesse la pena conoscere.Annegati sotto un mare di parole inutili e di fatti di cui francamente non ci importa un accidente, qualche buono spunto c'è. Peccato raccontato così male, supportato così male e infarcito di prediche gratuite che hanno tolto fulgore alle parole dei morenti, che meritavano di essere ascoltate in silenzio. less
