The Time Keeper – by Mitch Albom

This review contains one possible spoiler located at the very end.  Stop after the short video of the author if you have not yet read the book but plan to do so.________ Every generation has someone who is “different.”  Not a Forrest Gump kind of different, but more like an Einstein, Copernicus, DaVinci, or Edison…
