Rating: Summary: THE REVIEW Review: I don't really like the book. Their love is not as meaningful to me as the book has described. The plot is good, but the author should've made it more of a tragedy instead of a happy ending. I don't like when Laura came back to him and then they stayed together. The author should just leave the story when Laura left to get marry with Leon. To me their love doesn't seem stable. I would like it more if he change the end and maybe have one of the main characters die. It may be lame, but it's unexpected. It would be more emotional and remembering.
Rating: Summary: One of the best I've ever read! Review: This book was, by far, one of the best books I have ever read!! So far, I've read all of Nicholas Sparks' books except "The Rescue" and now I can't wait to read that one! Like his others, "The Notebook" made me laugh and cry. It is brilliantly written and the excerpts of poetry make it all the better. The fact that it was about two old people reminiscing on their love was not appealing to me at first, but after I started reading I couldn't put it down! I would gladly recommend this book to anyone who loves love! It is awesome!!
Rating: Summary: Pleasant quick weekend read Review: Right in the middle I was disappointed by an unnecesary love scene.. but other than that this is a quick read and pleasant for one weekend.I enjoyed the writing and the story, but it is a watery romance with little robust character. Still, as I mentioned: pleasant.
Rating: Summary: Take My Breath Away.... Review: I am only 17 years old, and when I set down to read this book I had in mind that it would be another futurisitc love story. But to my suprise it was aything but. It made me see that this is the way women should be treated and this is who they should marry. That the way a man makes you feel about your hopes and dreams should be the true person that they are. So if your one who loves romance novels this is the best I have read, Sparks is an incredible gifted writer. and for those who are like me and tend not to be fond of love stories just start reading The Notebook and the way you percieve the man/woman of your dreams will change forever........
Rating: Summary: A Tearjerker that Will Melt Even the Stoniest Heart! Review: I have to confess that when I read this book, I was in the car on a roadtrip with my parents. I had a horrible head cold, and they were riding up front while I huddled in the backseat with this book. Now, I NEVER cry at movies or books -- for heaven's sake, right? -- but by the time I was done with this beautiful love story, I was weeping furtively, concealing my tears under the sniffly guise of my cold. This story is absolutely gorgeous. I mean, this book violates absolutely every rule against melodrama, manipulation, or maudlin emotion, but it WORKS. What can I say? You grow to love these characters, and their story unfolds so tantalizingly and so carefully, your whole heart will become invested in their experiences and decisions. The only thing now is that I dare not read the book again... I'm afraid my husband will come home and find me in a most satisfying heap on the floor, weeping inelegantly! But see for yourself!
Rating: Summary: The Notebook Review: A beautiful book. Nicholas Sparks has a way with words. He can develop a romance and put just enough drama into it to make it exciting. The Notebook has a wonderful plot. Read it!
Rating: Summary: Wonderful! Review: I thought that the book was excelent! It was the type of book you couldn't put down once you got into it. This book is so much like real life and not made up/fanticy life. It was very interesting, and I was always in suspence. It is a great book and would recomend it to anyone!
Rating: Summary: Wonderful love story. Review: All I can say is Wow. This was one of the best love stories I have ever read. Anyone who has read Nicholas Sparks other books and enjoyed them will be equally saitisfied with this one. The last chapter of the book was a wonderful way of showing how love can overcome everything.
Rating: Summary: Wonderfully passionate! Review: I read this book in one sitting. I laughed and cried. My heart pounded in my chest as I read. The passion that Sparks creates in his characters flows from the pages of this wonderful short story. He has truly captured what "soul mates" are all about. The feelings evoked through this love story are beautiful and will be enjoyed by the romantic in everyone.
Rating: Summary: Tear fest, but worth it Review: Rarely have I been moved as much by a book. It's very short and a quick read, but the message is crystal clear. I have lost count how many times I have read it. It was loaned to me by a girlfriend for a trip to Europe. I finished it in the airport! I read it twice more on the trip. I have lost count on how many kleenexes I used, but all I can say is that I can't believe that this hasn't been made into a movie already! Read it today.
