The Lost Choice: A Legend of Personal Discovery Audiobook

" Awesome historical fiction. I learned more tidbits of world history here than in high school "

" Great read. Very inspiring and thought provoking. Suggested it to all my students!!! "

" The first Andrews book I did not like.. It did not keep my attention .. I tried to hang in there with it but did not finish .. "

" An amazing book. An inspirational, motivational, spiritual journey that I think everyone should take. Written as a mystery, several friends trace the past of some old artifacts, finding they once belonged to some of the greatest (real life) people that ever lived...and find they were profoundly inspired in the choices they made. "

" See my review of The Traveler's Gift. This book is much the same, although I think better written and perhaps more thought provoking (hence the four stars). "

" I'm feeling inspired already - or, I would be, if I weren't feeling so cynical. I bought this book not realizing that Andy Andrews is one of those business/motivational speaker authors. The story is a contrivance to allow him to look back at certain historical characters and focus on the "choice" they made to "do something special" with their lives choices (and, of course, by making this choice they made the world a better place and if only you would choose also to do something special with your life you would make the world a better place). The characters of the "story", as a result, lack any substance. But, on the bright side, it is a quick read and I learned a few things. For example, I knew almost nothing about George Washington Carver before reading this book. "

" Slow at first, but it picks up the pace...just don't give up on it! "

" I read this shortly after Katrina, and it was really uplifting. A wonderful, positive story. "

" I really liked The Lost Choice, it was pretty cool how it actually went through some real events that happened in the world, e.g. Our founding fathers, Joan of Arc, Alfred Vanderbilt's story on the Lusitania. I would totally recommend this book, I enjoyed it. It is motivational as well. "

" really liked this book and its premise but it was a bit contrived and it could have used another go by the editor...a few holes were left unresolved. "

" I really liked this book. I'm not sure exactly how much is historically accurate, but it was very interesting. A good read, that inspired me to choose and do something special with my life. "

" I liked this story, an easy read. "

" I loved this book. I reread it, highlighted quotes, and recommended it to friends. It's not for everyone, but I walked away from this book with a changed heart. Choice... So powerful! "

" I thought this book was very inspirational. The story line was fantastic and the author did his homework and made it realistic enough that I could stand to read it. I loved the evasiveness of the story line at the beginning, but he brought it together nicely. "

" This is a self-help book written in story format. All the principles Any Andrews teaches in this book are great, but his story writing and story line is shallow. I enjoyed the book, but I didn't love it. "

" An optional-read book on how to stay motivated as you manage your career. "

" The story itself got a little cheesy, especially towards the end, but I still enjoyed it and found it very inspiring. "

" I rather enjoyed this book though I was a bit disappointed in the ending. I was looking for all the pieces to fit together when really the book was about making choices. Gave me a lot to think about. "

" This is really good - fun read "

" LOVED this book! My favorite Andy Andrews so far! Learned so much about History and it's amazing people and what makes them go great! "

" This is one of Andrews best. I'd say second to The Travelers Gift. He sticks to the plot without resorting too much to his Butterfly Effect stuff. I think it's definitely worth reading. "

" This was a good, historically-based "artifact mystery," like National Treasure or People of the Book, but not as good/believable. I liked it. It was a quick, clean read. "

" Relics found with messages that change lives--we have choices to make that effect the world. Makes you think. "

" GREAT BOOK! This is a beautiful story that promotes deep thinking. "

" Great read. Very inspiring and thought provoking. Suggested it to all my students!!! "

" Maybe I just needed the message this book has....but I was very impressed and loved it! Kind of like "Magnificent Obsession" meets historical fiction. Really loved it! "

" Liked this author -- definitely a book with a message to consider at the end. I'll read more by this author. "

" This book was alright. It had some interesting history in it, but overall it was a slow-moving, poorly written book. "

" This is a pretty good book to read, but not the best one for me. And there're so many lessons that you can learn from this book. "

" I really liked The Lost Choice, it was pretty cool how it actually went through some real events that happened in the world, e.g. Our founding fathers, Joan of Arc, Alfred Vanderbilt's story on the Lusitania. I would totally recommend this book, I enjoyed it. It is motivational as well. "

" Weird! <br/> <br/>I mean, I get the main point, that nothing gets done unless we get off our backsides and do it. But does it take some mystic relationship with a chuck of metal with an inscription on it to get anything done? "
