The Noticer by Andy Andrews

Sometimes, all a person needs is a little perspective. The Noticer is a story about a man named Jones who seems to show up at just the right time to give some helpful advice to individuals. Jones, a homeless man, travels with a suitcase and a wealth of knowledge. He’s the type of individual that people want to be around.

This is a good story about this Jones character but I have to say I’m not a fan of Andy Andrews writing style. You will find a ton of good advice throughout this entire book if you can get through it. Some people say they can’t put this book down. I had trouble wanting to pick it back up. You may be one of those people that just fall in love with this story. I really struggled with it.

The message of finding perspective in life’s moments or seasons is inspiring. The way it’s told is not.

I reviewed this book as a member of the Thomas Nelson Book Review Blogger program. http://brb.thomasnelson.com/
