Rating: Summary: We should all be so lucky as to find a love as great as this Review: I have read and re-read "The Notebook", probably around six times, I have passed it on the friends, yes, even my husband and every review has come back the same. This is one of the greatest love stories of our time...there is no greater love than the unselfishness that Noah Calhoun shows as he reads the notebook day after day. We should all be so lucky!
Rating: Summary: One of the best "romances" I've ever read! Review: This is a great book! It was a very loving and touching book. I read it without putting it down. If you decide to read this book, make sure you have a box of tissues right beside you!
Rating: Summary: A very romantic, heart-wrenching love story! Review: I absolutely fell in love with The Notebook. It is a beautiful story about a couple destined and meant to be together, and how they overcome the obstacles in the way of their being together. READ IT!!!
Rating: Summary: Be prepared to cry! Review: I started this book yesterday and finished it this morning - it was not only a quick read but also impossible to put down! I was crying so hard by the end of the book, and I am not reduced to tears by many books or movies. This book was a joy to read; the reader feels the emotions that Noah and Allie are experiencing about their reunion, falling in love again, and the fact that they are meant to be together. Nicholas Sparks truly captures all the parts of true love and all the obstacles that it can overcome. Above all, Sparks makes us realize that true love is what we are all looking for the most in our time on this earth. He writes beautifully about the power of love and shows the reader that it is the one emotion that matters above all else in the end. The romantic side will be brought out in all who have the opportunity to read this wonderful novel. I recommend this book to everyone, especially the hopeless romantics out there, but be prepared to cry many tears of both joy and sadness at the power of love!
Rating: Summary: So Much better then Bridges of Madison County Review: I have not been so touched by a book since Bridges of Madison County. The Notebook, in my opinion was 100 times better. I have recently moved from Dallas to North Carolina where this story took place. He described everything about this state perfectly. I myself fell in love with Noah Calhoun. I have never identified with a character in a book like I did with Allie. Allie faced choices that almost anyone can identify with. This book tugged at my heart, made me weep, and taught me that you always have a choice and no one but yourself can draw out your life for you.
Rating: Summary: I have never been so touched by a book Review: I myself fell in love with Noah Calhoun, and I have never been able to identify with any character like I did with Allie. I would recommend that anyone, man or woman, read this book. Not only will it tug at your heart and make you cry, but it will make you see that you can choose how your life will be, and not let someone else draw it out for you.
Rating: Summary: a beautiful love story Review: this was a book i could not put down. i also read the note in a bottle by this writer. i look forward to many more books by him. this was a real love story. the kind of love we all keep searching for.
Rating: Summary: A terrible read... Review: I can't believe that this book was an international bestseller. Who liked it that much? I read it because it was recommended to me by a friend, but I hated it. I couldn't wait for it to be done. The writing was horrible. I felt like I was reading a sixth grader's term paper. I left it on a plane after I finished it--God knows I don't want to add it to my library.
Rating: Summary: A must-read for every romantic Review: The Notebook is one of the most phenomenal books I have ever read. It strengthened my belief in love, the kind that lasts forever. Nicholas Sparks has incredible talent, and the images his words create are unforgettable. Everyone should read this book!
Rating: Summary: pass it along, true love lives! Review: I was loaned this book by a friend. What a great way to spend a cold Michigan Saturday afternoon. It is a wonderful tale of life and love that made me laugh and cry. I have been watching my mother in law deal with the "loss" of her mother due to Alzheimers. I thought twice about passing it along to her, but fianlly did. Although we may be missing a piece of a lovely lady bit by bit, this story gave us some hope. There may be a way to beat this disease. It may not be a medical cure, but this book finds a way past the termoil. Pass it along to someone you love, you'll feel better for doing so.
