Nicholas Sparks

3.7 AVERAGE


Amanda, Dawson, Evelyn, Frank, Abee, Ted, Jared, Morgan, Alan, Candy, Marilyn, Lynn, Dr. Mills. 13 perspectives in 292 pages. Instead of developing depth in each character, it did the opposite; I didn't care about any of them.

This text seemed like a mismatched manuscript where the author couldn't decided which voice to use. Dawson and Amanda were irritating, as they complained and whined about the unfairness of life.

Darn you Nicholas Sparks you did it again! Really great book, could put it down and per usual I cried at the end. Nicely done, it was a great read.

I didn't even finish this book. I just couldn't get into it and it was very predictable and depressing. i guess I'm just not one for romance novels...

Recipe for writing a Nicholas Sparks’ novel: Have a boy and girl fall in crazy, stupid, love. Come up with a reason why this love cannot be. Have the girl marry some guy that she sort of likes, because how dare a woman not marry and reproduce. Have the long-lost true love return. Have the girl cheat on her husband and then kill someone unexpectedly within the last three chapters. And apparently you've got yourself a bestseller. The End.

2.5-3

Nicholas Sparks is one of my favorite authors. It was a couple chapters before I got into "The Best of Me". By the time I got 3/4ths into it, I couldn't put it down. As always, his books are another great read.
