I just finished reading 90 Minutes in Heaven by Don Piper. - a really gripping and compelling read! Its a true story about a man who met a terrible accident - an 18-wheeler ran over his car, crushing it. He was pronounced dead, went to heaven, and came back to life after 90 minutes. In those minutes he had a glimpse of heaven and all its glory which he says no words on earth can aptly describe. It was really a gripping read because no one has ever died and gone to heaven and lived again to talk about it.

After the accident comes a long and gruelling period of recovery for Don, and he talks about the miracles, pains, joys, and sacrifices and love he received from everyone around him. The writing style is really not remarkable - i found it repetitive and it didnt feel spontaneous. But Don's ordeal made him learn more about himself which in turn also made me ask myself about my own motivations in life. Its a true story about survival, too. Ive always loved books about the strength of the human spirit to live on even in difficult times (Life of Pi, The Old Man and Sea) but those are fiction and Don's experience was the real deal. He has been interviewed and appeared on tv many times to tell his story but I admit im still a bit skeptical. but whether or not his account is the true heaven, its a great read and a compelling testimony of the power of prayer too :D
