The Longest Ride
by Nicholas Sparks
I wanted to DNF this book right after the first chapter. I made it to page 211 before I felt that I was justified enough in my suffering to put it down. I have read every...single...novel by Mr. Sparks, and this was the worst yet.
If you have the urge to read the book, please visit this link instead: http://www.supersummary.com/the-longest-ride/summary/
This link summarizes the book 1000% times better than the actual book itself. It actually makes the book sound interesting. There is probably a full chapter full of interesting in the whole book, and the rest of the pages were boring and mundane.
The characters were all completely flat and trope-y for me. I never cared about them, and felt the desperation of trying to make another 'The Notebook'. Newsflash! You cannot try to replicate the true love and enjoyable read that book provided.
This story is completely plot-driven and bored the hell out of me. Ira's chapters were like pulling teeth. I would skim them completely to get the jist and then move on to Luke and Sophia's chapters. Even them, Luke and Sophia were cardboard cutouts. I liked the cowboy theme, but if you're looking for a better love story, read Ree Drummond (Food Network's 'The Pioneer Woman')'s memoir on meeting and marrying her real-life cowboy husband.
