The Choice is a love story about an adventure-seeker, Travis, and his new (and taken) next-door neighbor, Gabby. Gabby tries to stay away, but she gets pulled in when she has to rely on her small town vet…Travis.
I feel like people either love or hate Nicholas Sparks’s books. Before you read them, you need to know what you’re getting into. They are all super sappy love stories (verging on the edge of cheesy), with a super horrific twist that may leave the readers heartbroken. With The Choice, it is no different. If you acknowledge that going into the book, then it is really enjoyable. I actually kept thinking to myself while reading this book, “Wow, this is so nice and happy. When does something terrible happen?”
There’s a reason why almost all of Sparks’s books turn into movies: they are very heavily dialogued. That makes it super easy for screenwriters to transfer it into a script. It also makes you feel like you really know the characters.

Más un 3.5 que 4.
Tiene ese típico romance que Sparks usa en los libros que he leído; se conocen, se enamoran, no se puede, les vale la vida, quedan juntos, uno se enferma, al otro no le queda de otra que esperar que recupere o que muera porque lo ama y no lo piensa abandonar.
Si me gusto, eso no lo niego, pero espero leer algo no tan predecible en el siguiente libro suyo que lea.

2.5 stars. Nothing much happened in the first 3/4 of the book, all building up to a big conflict which wasn’t what I thought it would be, so I’ll give him props for that. The amount of time that it took them to fall in love was ridiculous. I was rolling my eyes so hard. She cheats on her long term boyfriend to be with her neighbor who she’s sure she loves after 2 full days together. Overall, not the worst book I’ve ever read, but certainly not the best. Meh.
⭐⭐⭐
This book is good and worth reading. I enjoyed it but it felt a little lacking. I may recommend it to a certain audience. It gave me mixed feelings, possibly with potential it didn’t quite live up to. It’s a good experience, not amazing, but not bad.
