Half a Heart

De: Karen McQuestion

Narrado por: Emily Durante

From best-selling author Karen McQuestion comes a moving novel about broken hearts…and what it takes to put them back together again.

At nine years of age, Logan Weber knows the routine. Keep quiet, make the food last, and don’t ever cause trouble. He’ll do what it takes to evade the rages of his troubled, violent father. Even though he’s only a child, Logan already knows too much - has seen too much.

So when the opportunity presents itself, Logan runs. He has no idea where his journey will lead, or that the grandmother he’s been told is dead is desperately searching for him.

Alone with no home of his own, Logan looks for a safe place to hide. Relying on his instincts and the kindness of strangers, the boy manages to touch the lives of everyone he meets. But his innocent heart cannot survive in the adult world without the most basic human need of all: love.

must read!

this book was amazing. the writing was so good and engaging, I actually felt like I was part of the book. the performance was also amazing. I actually felt for this little boy and cried at the end! but, it was a good kind of cry!

Scary and sad, but oh so true.

I enjoyed the story but at times it was difficult to listen to because it was very scary. The descriptions of the abuse that the young boy was subjected to was quite disturbing. Well narrated.

Very Intriguing

loved the story, loved the characters, the author has a way of pulling you into wanting more. Awesome reader, did great job on all the voices. Could not quite listening. Worth the time to listen and enjoy.

I’m so glad I kept going

Some stories are too hard to listen. I thought this was going to be one of those in the opening. I’m so glad that I kept going. After that initial hesitation, I couldn’t stop and finished in a 24 hour period. This is a great story of goodness, strength and survival, mixed in with some harsh realities.

A pleasant story

A pleasant story that kept my interest. However It was very predictable and the narration was child like.

This story was OK. A lot of coincidences,

This story was OK. A lot of coincidences, but heartbreaking and heartwarming both. The narrator did a good job. I probably wouldn’t recommend it to any of my friends.

amazing

I loved it and sad it is over. Want there to be a part two.

Not stupendous, but still a great story.

I'm sure I will play this one again. Didn't make me cry, didn't scare me. Just held my interest to the end. I had no problem with the narrating, all voices were clear a quote realistic to me.

Enjoyable book.

Not too profound or unique. Good performance and kept my interest.
Worth the time to listen to.

Nice Story

I enjoyed the story. Easy to listen to while I sew. I get disappointed in stories when they leave out prayer. I believe turning to a higher power is in our DNA during stressful situations.
