Explanation To Books When Crickets Cry

A man with a painful past. A child with a doubtful future. And a shared journey toward healing for both their hearts. It begins on the shaded town square in a sleepy Southern town. A spirited seven-year-old has a brisk business at her lemonade stand. But the little girl's pretty yellow dress can't quite hide the ugly scar on her chest. Her latest customer, a bearded stranger, drains his cup and heads to his car, his mind on a boat he's restoring at a nearby lake. The stranger understands more about the scar than he wants to admit. And the beat-up bread truck careening around the corner with its radio blaring is about to change the trajectory of both their lives. Before it's over, they'll both know there are painful reasons why crickets cry . . . and that miracles lurk around unexpected corners.

Commentary Of Books When Crickets Cry

I really enjoyed this book. It is well written and I loved the passages/quotes from other books. It's interesting what we choose to read and when. I have been reading this book as Boston struggles with his health; it was a soothing way to release and deal with the stress of Boston's episodes. It's a great book; I even gained a little anatomy refresher course. :) Although it did take awhile to get into this book, it was definitely worth the time. For Rachelle, I'm still a little confused with the

Even though this book is a little predictable, it is a pleasant read and good for the "heart". It is a story of faith and a story of despair and a story of healing. Some great characters and some great quotes.

2 1/2 starsIn order for me to review this book fairly I first need to address the elephant in the room, namely religion. The author is without question a deeply committed Christian and his beliefs are evident in almost every paragraph in his book. Having grown up in a church-going family I have no problem with Christianity. If Mr. Martin is secure in his beliefs and confident of what lies in store beyond the grave, more power to him. The book he has written is what many call Christian fiction. I

When you look at the rating for this book you will see that it is quite high. So, that means there are people out there that liked it, really liked it. I am not that person. This a southern raised author and the book is set in Georgia so the combination of these two things drew me initially to this book. The description also sounded like something I might enjoy. I found the author was way too detailed when describing both a healthy and diseased heart. I'm pretty sure he was using this to

Wow, another terrific book about the heart (literally), emotional healing and the power of redemption and love. How refreshing to read a mainstream book that speaks of God, is squeaky clean, even gives a powerful sermon (without being preachy) about the evils of pornography, an unspoken sermon about the evils of drugs, and a storyline that lifts the soul. Being interested in medicine, I also enjoyed what I learned on that front. I highly recommend this book.

"Beautiful" the best word to describe this novel. Beautiful language, allusions, quotes, characters, story - all beautiful. You feel like a better person after reading this book. I suspect that if a heart surgeon read it he/she would say it's far-fetched, but I'm not a heart surgeon so I loved it! If you do buy the book, part of the proceeds go towards saving children with heart disease.Along with helping a great cause, there are so many quotable quotes, that I will probably buy the book just so

I was excited to read this book because it came highly recomended. I really wanted to like it but I couldn't get into it. There were some good things about this book. It was a sweet story. It was nice to read a book that had morals, it had some exciting parts but I didn't get emotionally involved. Call me a Hard Hearted Hannah, but the only tears I shed were of boredom. Maybe I am being too harsh, the book was okay but I was dissapointed in it.
