Summary: The Rescue
Review: This book was ok but the problem that I found was it was to predictable. The characters were interesting though. The story seemed to move to slowly to keep me interested for a great deal of time. I am a Sparks fan and kept coming back to find what I was looking for in the book. It just wasn't keeping my attention, I will however say that I finished it and am looking forward to his next book .

Summary: READ THIS AND YOU'LL NEED TO BE RESCUED!
Review: Did I miss something? After reading this book, it was hard to believe the same person who wrote other such wonderful romances like A Walk to Remember, The Notebook and Message in a Bottle penned this. I truly had a difficult time trying to finish it..yawn! Dwelling on Kyle's inability to communicate normally, got real tiresome. There were very few moments that were "exciting", like towards the end, other than that, this was not one of Nicholas Sparks better works. I'll still continue to read his books - I guess one can't have best sellers all the time.

Summary: Another Wonder From Sparks
Review: Nicholas Sparks has a wonderful way of bringing you into his stories. The Rescue is a wonderful love story. I feel like I know the characters personally because Sparks paints their feelings and emotions so beautifully.! Thank you Mr. Sparks.

Summary: Breath Taking
Review: I must admit that I am not a lover of fiction, but once I picked this book up I couldn't put it down. The characters began to come apart of me. With each turn of the page I felt their anguish, desires, and happiness. What a great book!

Summary: I Loved It!
Review: Once again, Nicholas Sparks does his magic! This book captivated my attention from the first page. I recently had the opportunity to hear Sparks speak at a book signing. If case you weren't aware, all of his novels are based on events that have happened in his own life. The characters are people with whom he has had a great deal of interaction. This novel is no exception; Sparks' own son was the model for the character Kyle. The speech difficulties of which were written, are the same difficulties Sparks' son has. I can not say that this book is any better than any of the others, because the three previous books all have messages of their own. The Rescue is written in Sparks' easy-flowing style, and certainly does not lack on message and meaning. I couldn't put it down, and I can not wait for the next novel.

Summary: Definitely not Spark's best
Review: As a diehard Sparks fan, I was truly disappointed in the "Danielle Steel" formulaic writing. Unlike his previous books, this was predictable, simple and after the first few chapters, boring. It was a struggle to finish. I will keep buying his books, hoping this was an aberration of his normally beautiful writing.

Summary: Let your love flow
Review: This latest book by Nicholas Sparks is a keeper. The reason why I absolutely enjoy his writing is he makes his characters real. They don't lead glamorous lives, they are normal everyday people. The Rescue, I feel, is a story that many women (and men) could relate to. A man and woman meet, enjoy each others company, are compatable, and the woman after a time wants more (commitment) but the man can't give anymore. Let me see a show of hands how many people have gone through this! I believe Mr. Sparks has hit the male persona with this one. A man who loves but cannot express his feelings, this discribes almost every man I know to include my husband (after 12 yrs. he is getting better!). If you have ever been in love, are in love, or just hoping for love read this book. I cannot recommend it any higher.

Summary: HE'S DONE IT AGAIN
Review: Once again Nicholas Sparks has written a book that I did not want to put down. He made the characters feel so real to me that even though I finished the book a few days ago, I still find myself thinking about the them. I think this is exactly what a good book should be and I can't wait until he writes his next one!

Rating:
Summary: Great characterization and action
Review: I thought this one was one of Nicholas Sparks best. Besides his usual great portrayal of his characters' feelings and emotions, he has a few action scenes that really move the book along. This book would make a good movie, and I'm sure Sparks had that in mind when writing the book.

Summary: Fabulous!
Review: This book is a definite page-turner. While his style of writing is similar to the rest of his books and the characters tend to be somewhat alike, this book will definitely have you cheering at the end.
