Just one thing- How did the movie come out of this pile of trash?

“After dinner, I become afraid despite myself. I know I should be joyous, for this reunion is the proof that love can still be ours, but I know the bell has tolled this evening. The sun has long since set and the thief is about to come, and there is nothing I can do to stop it. So I stare at her and wait and live a lifetime in these last remaining moments.”
It is a touching, poignant and compelling story that will forever linger in you with nostalgia. It resonates with an emotional vibrancy that will enchant one, making it remarkable and memorable.
This is the best love story I've read so far. The beauty lies in the sweet little moments larger than life that they have spent together in a small south american village. The romance between Noah and Allie is Sublime!
Nicholas Sparks avoided much of Drama to make it a perfect Romance in the midst of nature. All the Love Letters and Poetry of Whitman, Tennyson, Thomas and Browning was described aesthetically.
I have a lot of feelings with this book which is difficult to express.

I actually really loved this book.
It was just a nice one sitting romance novel.
I deducted a star because unlike the movie the book didn't go into depth about the two of them's past lives and also I wish the ending was like the movie. You know so it could've been emotional like it but however there were the right amount of sweet and gushy moments in this book that made me feel hopefully I could end up loving someone like Noah.
The letters to one another was so heart felt and the little passages they wrote in letter to create a metaphor for how they felt about the other person at time was just the most romantic thing I've read. I love it.
So if your looking for a book that's short in length and a good romance novel, The Notebook is perfect for it and it's nots like Nicholas Sparks other works where theyre sad, this one is just simply lovely.

I really loved the film, so I’m disappointed. The story had potential and was a nice story but the start was very rushed. I know you find out a bit about that summer but it was easier to understand in the film.
It’s too sappy, the love letters were nice but surely there is a bit of anger at being ignored for 14 years?
The sex scene was also a bit cheesy and you can tell it was written by a man!
Also, did they die in the end? Or what? I’m confused
Overall, good story but poorly done, I much preferred the film which I never though I’d say
