A friend told me to read this book because she thought it was good! I didn't even realize that it was written by the same guy who wrote "A Walk To Remember" This book was awesome! I read it in 2 days!!

This is a great book. I usually don't read romance but I couldn't put The Notebook down till I was finished. It catches love at its beginning and shows how love is more powerful then space and time. Nicolas Sparks is now one of my favorite writers and I'm about to start A Message in A Bottle and I already know that I won't be able to put it down either.

Absolutely amazing


Kind of ironic that I am writting this review the day before mr. Sparks birthday. I feel as though he has given me a new lease on life. I took his book The Notebook with me on a mini-vacation my husband and I went on this past week, and it revitilized our relationship. We have two boys under three and I sometimes get bogged down with the whole everydayness of everything, but after reading his books I find myself enjoying the little things again, like the way my three year old asked me this past fall why all the trees were losing thier clothes, or how my eight month old baby looks when he is done eating and that little pool of salvia mixed with milk sits on his bottom lip.
Im thankful for mr. Sparks also making me remember why I love my husband.
Thank You Mr. Sparks
