This was my first Nicholas Sparks novel ever. I read it for the first time when I was a senior in high school, I believe, and found it to be a beautiful love story. I just decided to re-read it this year. It was good. I liked it. Tear-jerker.

I kept on complaining about the book while reading it because the characters were so “ideal” and everything was so perfect that it was annoying. But the ending, even though very sad, put a nice cherry on top for me. It brought lots of emotions and interesting thoughts. The book deals with a topic that is present in my life and that was definitely interesting to read about, and again, the ending, those last few pages, left me some very beautiful ideas and thoughts about it. I wouldn’t say it was a great book, but it definitely was great reading it.

This is my least favorite book by Sparks. It is not a love story that has a happy ending (which I want from a Sparks novel). I did not feel connected to the characters and it took me forever to read (which I hate). The ending left me sad, disappointed & depressed. I agree with the comments from other readers about throwing the book across the room when they got to the ending. I have never seen the movie and probably never will since I am not a fan of Kevin Costner and I do not go out of my way to see his movies (although some that I have seen have been enjoyable).

Damn I'm so done with tear-pouring endings. I hate to cry reading every Sparks's novel. It's a beautiful story.

ngl podobała mi się bardziej niz "dla ciebie wszystko" (nie umiem nie porównywać tych książek)
pod koniec trochę się spieszyłam i czytałam niedokladnie bo nie chciałam zasnąć oraz byłam ultra ciekawa jak to się skończy. tym razem zakończenie nie było aż tak satysfakcjonujące ale myślę że całkiem pasujące do historii :**
