by: Randy PauschThe Last Lecture is a biography, which means it really happened, written by college professor, Randy Pausch. It is told in Randy's perspective and you come to really admire who he is and his take on the world.
I chose this book also because of book club. We haven't had our meeting yet but I am looking forward to discussing it. I finished it in about three or four days over Thanksgiving break. The Last Lecture is a very quick pick and before you know it, you've finished the book! I think it goes by so fast because of the short chapters, which I like.
The Last Lecture is about a man with cancer and hes been given a few months to live. The biography is him giving advice on how to think and live based on his own experiences. This book is filled with many stories all the way from Pausch's childhood to his present life. None of the stories are told for no reason, they all have a message and you can learn something them. My favorite tales that he tells are of his wife and children. I think the reason that I like these parts of the book so much is because of the way he describes them. You can tell in his words how much he loves them and doesn't want to leave them. Its is a very sad and touching story, it brought me to tears. Not many books do that to me. I would definitely recommend this book to everyone because it gives you simple tips and teaches you important life lessons. It inspires me to live my life to the fullest because life itself is limited.
