The life lessons in this book are phenomenal! I will be reading this book over & over again, for the rest of my life, for the beautiful reminders.

I am truly convinced Jones is JESUS! Randomly appears to those in such turmoil and after helping them SEE….disappears just as quickly. This book has taught me to view anything and everything with a different perspective and to keep my mind open!

My first book for the book club I joined at work. A 2009 release, very motivational and empowering.
The book is a set of short adventures that revolve around people who live in the same town. A man, Jones, has a special gift of noticing things about people they would never notice. He meets Andy and shows him the path and opens his eyes to the future he could have if he only changed his way of thinking.
It was a very quick read, very enjoyable, and enlightening to read. Helped me see and think differently about how I may pursue things in the future, or to be more aware of situations and surroundings.

I read this awhile ago, as in years ago, and it was great. Don't know if Goodreads malfunctioned, because a lot of books I'd previously read are now under "To Be Read"....ugh.

One of my absolute favorite books! I don't want to give any spoilers away, but I think this should be required reading. Just saying.

This was recommended to me by a family member who loved this book. I finished it wondering how anyone would love this book.
The author wanted to write a book about perspective and reframing, but clearly thought he was so clever in deciding to cloak it in a narrative instead. Once I saw that the publisher was Thomas Nelson, I should have known it would not be worth a read.
While there were small nuggets, it was mostly too corny to really glean anything good. This book is so corny that not even Hallmark would buy the rights to a movie.
I have read worse books, but not many. I would never recommend this book to anyone. Instead, ask me of some good book recommendations.
