Where the River Ends Audiobook

" An ok book. I found myself 'suspending my disbelief' a bit too often. On the plus side it is a beautiful love story of self-sacrifice. "

" This book was a real tear jerker and a beautiful love story. I had a hard time getting into it because when you first start to read it you kind of know what the end is going to be. But, the journey is a beautiful story to two people who totally love each other. That love is shown through total sacrifice. Loved this book. "

" I would maybe give it 3.5. It was annoying how every other chapter jumped from the past to the present, it kinda interrupted the flow of the story for me. Also it was really cheesy at times but in the end it was a pretty touching story. "

" Great author and storyteller - I have read all his books and one of my favorite authors! "Charles makes the characters come alive! Awesome! " "

" What a stunning novel. Martin captures the spirit of unconditional love so beautifully. I don't cry... I cried. "

" I wish I had words to describe what this book did to me. The journey and the belief that it truly never ends... "

" This books bored me to death except the last 20 pages brought me to tears and a feeling of emptyness and sorrow. Even though the ending was very sad it was also very sweet. "

" This was a great book, and it does make you cry at the end "

" This was a very good story. A rich girls fall in love with a boy raised by his father after his mother dies. She gets cancer and he stays with her until her death the father trying to hunt them down the whole time. HE takes her to the ends of the River. "

" To be honest,I didn't get very far into Where The River Ends; it's folksy, aw-shucks style and weird issues with gender and illness/disability made me supremely uninterested in picking it up again after I'd put it down for a break from its homespun platitudes. Just not my kind of book. "

" I really enjoyed this book. I really good story. "

" I am enjoying this author. His writing is beautifully descriptive and I enjoy that his books are set in Georgia. "

" Almost a five star. Will read more of this author. "

" 2008 from jacksonville ...he has written alot of books usally take place in fla ga south carolina! "

" Loved this book! I could "see" the river and feel the love of this couple. I love anything Charles writes. "

" I will have to read more by Charles Martin. This book is moving. Doss and Abbie face her diagnosis of cancer head on. My "eyes leaked" many times...especially at the end. "

" This was an excellent book. Martin had a wonderful way of getting you to know and love his characters. He has a way of making you feel the love between two people without all the mush. This book made me cry and cry, but it was well worth it. "

" The author is a little long-winded at times. A lot of description about scenery, etc. Overall, however, this is a very good love story. It's not quite the caliber of Nicholas Sparks (would be if it wasn't so heavy on the description), but it's still a good one to pick up for a quick read. "

" Nice story.... But super sad. Have a tissue in your hand!!! "

" A story of compassion and self sacrifice. "

" oh so sad, but oh so good. "

" I would give this a 10-star rating, if I could. Thanks for the recommendation, Bess. I absolutely loved this book - honest and heart-wrenching and he got the medical parts right, too. That combo of great art and tough medical stuff just got to me. "

" Another winner by Charles Martin. Buy a box of keenex and go on a journey through the heart. It is the story of a young couple very much in love and what they feel when she is diagnosed with terminal cancer. It's their story in all it's raw tired truth. He sure has a way with words. "

" It's only a 3 star because I rounded up from 2.5. It was too long and too many copy editing mistakes--and really, if I was loving the book I probably wouldn't have noticed those. As much as I've loved Martin's other books, this one was a big disappointment. "

" This was a well written love story. I liked how it flipped between the characters past and the present. The details and the pain of dealing with a loved ones cancer was very real and honest. "

" 3.5 starsThought provoking story about last days of cancer, the relationship between husband and wife, and what is true love really. It was a good story, easy read, but enjoyable. Loved Abbie. Loved Doss. Loved the flying priest. "

" What an incredible love story! This book was lovely and in a class of its own, it really gives you a mark to measure your own relationships by and probably most men won't meet that mark, sadly. I fell in love! "

" Another book by one of my favorite authors! Yippee!! It was FANTASTIC! I cried & cried. I love, love, love Charles Martin's books!!! "

" Very well written, Charles Martin takes you inside the emotional roller coaster of a cancer patient. The front cover has a warning that the book will break your heart. It does that and so much more! I recommend this to everyone, it is a true work of art! "

" This is the best book I've read this year. True love eloquently put into words. "

" I will have to read more by Charles Martin. This book is moving. Doss and Abbie face her diagnosis of cancer head on. My "eyes leaked" many times...especially at the end. "

" This book was just okay. I liked every other chapter but felt it was too much of a geography lesson in between. Perhaps if I were more familiar with the southeastern United States it would have meant more to me. "

" interesting book. good parts. bad parts. interesting parts. "

" Strange turns in this book. Very unbelievable. "
