Andy Andrews' Newest Book: The Noticer
Hits Bookstores
April 28, 2009 - Orange Beach, AL - Andy Andrews' latest book,
The Noticer, hit book stores last week. The Noticer
is available locally at
Pack & Mail, or on Andy's website
www.AndyAndrews.com. From AndyAndrews.com: Hailed by a New York Times writer as a "modern-day Will
Rogers who has quietly become one of the most influential people in
America," Andy Andrews is an internationally known speaker and novelist
whose combined works have sold millions of copies worldwide. He has been
received at the White House and has spoken at the request of four
different United States presidents.
Orange Beach, Alabama, is a simple town filled with simple people. But they all have their share of problems – marriages teetering on the brink of divorce, young adults giving up on life, business people on the verge of bankruptcy, and many of the other obstacles that life seems to dish out to the masses.
Fortunately, when things look the darkest – a mysterious old man named Jones has a miraculous way of showing up. A man of indiscriminate age and race with white hair and wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and carrying a battered old suitcase, Jones is a unique soul with near angelic qualities. Communicating what he calls “a little perspective,” Jones explains that he has been given a gift of noticing things about life that others miss. In his simple interactions, Jones speaks to that part in everyone that is yearning to understand why things happen and what they can do about it.
Based on a remarkable true story, The Noticer beautifully blends
fiction, allegory, and inspiration. It provides simple, yet powerful
distinctions about love, relationships, value and integrity and will
inspire readers to take that first step towards a major life change.

Cornhusker Academy
"I was so excited to read this book since I have read Andy's book The Traveler's Gift and absolutely loved it. It was so unique that I wasn't sure he could meet my high expectations. My goodness, Andy did it..." Adventures and Thought of Team Cross
"The drifter we know as Jones 'notices' things about people, often deep dark secrets that know one else should know. Throughout the book I couldn’t help but notice the parallels between Jones and Jesus. Both meeting a person in their darkest hour and providing hope and avenues for change, but never condemning or judging the person." BlogCritics.org
"The book is a quick and easy read, peopled as it is with troubled characters mired in relatable situations. Jones-to-the-rescue conversations are full of proverbial wisdom dispensed in pithy aphorisms." Backseat Writer
"The past few days I’ve been following the adventures of a cheeky old man named Jones, who gives the residents of Orange Beach, Alabama a new perspective on life, love, and everything in-between in the novel." Postcards From Myself
"By noticing the different perspectives from which we approach the decisions in our lives, we gain understanding. This can be understanding of how others see us, understanding of the consequences of our actions, or understanding of how our lives intertwine with others." Random Jottings by Richard L. Mabry, MD
"I intend to buy several copies of this book and give them to friends and family. As for my own copy, I’m about to go through it a second time with a yellow highlighter. Because, goodness knows, there are lots of times I’d benefit from a new perspective."
The OBA Observer
Having met Andy over 25 years ago, our paths have crossed several
times... So there may be a little bias in my feelings toward the book,
but I LOVED IT!
