Memorable The book The Notebook was very good. it had a very good message to it which was to listen to your heart. When you are stuck in a situation that needs solving, you listen to your heart and do what you think is best. When Allie went and visited Noah, and became close to him, she didn't know what to say to her husband, Lon, about it.
What True Love Is All About This book was so beautiful, I couldn't put it down. If only we all could find a love like this once in a lifetime, and hang onto it!
descriptive and lively settings Sparks does an OUTSTANDING job with describing the settings of this story.....one can "vividly see" the places throughout the story.....i found myself reading this book slower than i usually do because it was just so much better for my imagination....i wanted to make sure i "soaked" in the environment.....GREAT job Sparks! Thanks for such a beautiful story.
Nauseated Let me start off with saying that I absolutely loved the movie, which is what motivated me to buy the book. I can now say that this book has made me not want to watch the movie for a very, very long time.
What an absolutely nauseating 'novel' (let's not kid ourselves, novel is being generous. Let's call it a short story). I'm one of the sappiest, mushiest people I know and I could hardly get through this book. I promptly threw it away once finished. Sparks should have at least attempted to make his characters' dialogue even the least bit realistic or believable. The constant over-the-top 'her eyes glistened like glowing emeralds in a sea of shimmering diamonds and she wondered how she ever made it through one breath without seeing the ripple of his chest' writing was just way too much. WAY too much. This book managed to thoroghly nauseate me. Anyone need some paper to start a bonfire??
i good love story~! this is one of the best love storys ever! my friend knew i liked the movie ALOT so she told me to read the book and i loved it even more, altough i liked the end to the movie better it is still worth the read
