Message in Bottle/ Unabridged

Rating:
Summary: bittersweet
Review: Message In A Bottle is the only book that has ever made me cry. Nicholas Sparks' story is simply written and easy to read. This is a story that will make you belive in second chances and true love. Bittersweet and wonderful. I had to read the book before I saw the movie because the book is ALWAYS better!

Summary: A real tear-jerker!!
Review: This is most defintely the best book I ever read. I was hooked from the beginning. The love that Garrett had for his wife was never-ending and it almost made you feel like you were in the story. I would absolutely recommend this to everyone. Especially if you need a good cry! Fantastic read!

Summary: MUST READ!!!!!!!
Review: This is one of the best books that I have read in years. It tock my breath away. Where is my Garrett? I was so mad when she turned him away. You will Laugh and cry. It will make you happy and sad. It's been a week and I can't get it out of my mind.

Review: I have not read "The Notebook" but if this book was any indication then I am not missing out. This idea behind it was unique and could have been a great love story...had someone else written it. Sparks continues to cheapen love and romance by sending the characters to bed almost as soon as they meet. Maybe this is a case where the movie will be better than the book.

Summary: The best book I have read in years.
Review: This is the book that I will never be without. From the moment I picked it up to the moment I threw away the tissues I could not put this book down. No Valentine, this is the perfect date.

Rating:
Summary: Wonderfully Romantic
Review: Nicholas Sparks sure knows his way into a woman's heart. I'd love to meet either him or D.M. Roman (the author of Fried Calamari who shows incredible insight into a woman's mind and desires). I recommend this book to anyone looking for a light entertaining romance.

Summary: I just couldn't put it down.
Review: I couldn't wait to get home from work so I could see what happened to Theresa and Garrett. This is definitely a tear-jerker. If you read Bridges of Madison County and cried, you haven't seen anything yet. You'll need a box of tissues handy. I've already recommended it to several friends.

Summary: What pap!
Review: This is the most mindless book I have ever read...I suppose if you like sappy soap opera's this one's for you.Personally, there are so many good books out there - you will do yourself a favor if you pass up this minipulative peice of junk...

Summary: I truley enjoyed it BUT?
Review: Overall this was a fine read, however I felt it could have been a few chapters shorter due to the fact that the middle parts got boring very quickly. I wished that Jeb's character could have been expanded, and maybe introduced early on. I liked the bazarness of how they met, I know people who have met in more wild and co-dependent fashions. Overall Read It.

Summary: To sum it up in one word: wow.
Review: I'm not a true believer in the miracles of love and romance, and had originally bought this novel to compare it with its big-screen counterpart opening this weekend. And then I picked up the book. I cried. I smiled. I displayed the typical emotions of an overly sensitive "chick". But I didn't care. I can only hope my life's path will lead me to a love as great as those depicted in Sparks' novel.
