Review:
Even tho this only The 13th Novel ive read by Nicholas Sparks i have to say i would of liked it abit more if The Prologue to Chapter 4 werent so descriptive and dragged out with Trevor's background story.
The Characters were fun and enjoyable to read about. Trevor and Natalie were definately My Favorites, i even shipped them by the end of the book.
The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually in 2019 Afghanistan and 2014 New Bern, North Carolina while reading, especially when the scenery was described.
Overall a Good Contemporary Novel!! Can't wait to read more by Nicholas in the future!!

I lived in New Bern for a year, so my fave parts of this were every time somewhere was mentioned that I've been to!
This book was one of my last gifts from my grandma, and I read it for her. It does hit home how the main character's grandpa passed away.
The romance wasn't my fave of Nicholas Sparks, but I did love the parts about her husband, and I think everything she was feeling was valid. Also loved how our main character didn't force her into a relationship and respected her boundaries.

The book is pretty good. It’s not the best Nicholas Sparks book in my opinion, but I do think it is one of the better ones. It feels different then the typical Sparks novel, which made it a real page turner and really intriguing. I think the story is much better than others he has done, but I do think the characters in this one are worse. Especially Trevor, some of the stuff he said made him sound like a real douche. I think it is a good story and has a good overall message, especially since it focuses on more than just the romance between Trevor and Natalie.

I’ve read all his books, but this just didn’t follow his trend. I thought it was a slow start and a quick few chapters of excitement. The ending was a bit lackluster and didn’t bring tears like many of his others.
