I did something I rarely get to do these days, I finished a book in just two days. Not because it was short, but because it was completely unputdownable. Mitch Albom’s newest novel, Twice, swept me away from the very first page.

Albom has always been one of those authors who speaks straight to my reader’s heart. The Little Liar left me breathless with its weight and truth, while The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto had me in awe of its lyrical, magical storytelling. Twice carries that same Albom magic, but in a way that feels fresh and tender, like a quiet reminder of the power of love, memory, and (of course) second chances.

What struck me most was the storytelling itself. Albom has this gift for writing with clarity and heart, so every page feels purposeful. His style draws you in with simple, elegant prose, but beneath that ease is a depth that lingers. The pacing keeps you turning pages, but it’s the emotional weight, the way he weaves big themes into everyday moments, that makes his novels unforgettable.

Being wrapped up in Twice felt like stepping into a story that was both intimate and universal—a story that whispers, “What would you do if life handed you another chance?” It wasn’t just about finishing quickly; it was about being completely immersed in a narrative that asked me to pause and reflect long after I set the book down.

So yes, Twice has officially earned its spot on my shelf alongside my beloved Frankie Presto and Little Liar. And if you’re looking for a book that’s heartfelt, compelling, and unforgettable, this one’s for you.

Have you picked up Twice yet? I’d love to know which Albom book has stuck with you the most!
