Lost December

This story completely reeled me in and wouldn't let go. Even though most of the scenarios in the book are rather extreme, I found myself really relating to the emotions of the characters and caring about each one individually.

this book is so completely awesome! It gives new insight into the story of the prodigal son and is moving and compelling. Well worth the listen...I had to stop driving near the end because of the tears in my eyes.

One of the best RPE books yet! I was touched multiple times byt the "realistic situations" and the "realistic natures" of the characters. I want all of my kids to read this to learn the lesson of choosing good friends. I cried multiple times reading this book. When i finished it, i started listening to it a second time.

this author is on a roll. Another great story. and very well read too.

Once again, Richard Paul Evans has created a modern day story from a Biblical tale. The 'prodigal son' story of love, hope, forgiveness and redemption comes alive very specifically in a story from today's modern world.

When the son of a multi millionaire owner of a copier company goes off to graduate school, he gets caught up with a group who live the adage-'live, love, & laugh, for tomorrow you may die.' Of course, through every debacle imaginable, he goes broke.

Even though the reader basically knows how this story ends up, Evans has crafted a story that keeps the interest level right up there with the best of stories. It's hard to believe that anyone can read this book and not find their heart changed at it's conclusion. Well worth the read!!

After about the first third of the book, I did listen to it in a sitting.

I bought this book based on the high ratings. I had my doubts when it started, but loved it by the end. I did not know until after I finished the book that he is the author of "Sunflower" which I read and loved years ago.

I never stop listening to the story, I will now look at life differently and its a great listen..

I started reading RPE books in the 1990s with The Christmas Box . . . and have continued over the years . . . He has a gift for writing stories of hope and love that will lift your spirits, especially around Christmas time . . . Lost December is no exception.

It was well spent in that i was cleaning the house as i listened.

It was bit too far fetched

No

Not a bad listen. Enjoyable, but predictable

This is a typical Richard Paul Evans read with a message and a happy ending. I must admit I was actually "surprised" by a few of the events in the story which was great. While I enjoyed the story, I really had a hard time with the narrator. I cringed waiting for him to inhale through his nose and lick his lips. There are several parts where I had to stop listening for a while because I was so distracted by the narrator. I prefer when Richard Paul Evans narrates his own books as he does in The Walk.
