|
Nicholas Sparks brings back two characters from his beloved bestseller, True Believer, in this continuing saga of extraordinary love. There are few things Jeremy Marsh was sure hed never do: hed never leave New York City; never give his heart away again after barely surviving one failed marriage; and most of all, never become a parent. Now, Jeremy is living in the tiny town of Boone Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie Darnell, the love of his life, and anticipating the birth of their daughter. But just as his life seems to be settling into a blissful pattern, an unsettling and mysterious message re-opens old wounds and sets off a chain of events that will forever change the course of this young couples marriage.

Summary: My favorite by Nicholas Sparks
Comment: I have read many of Nicholas Sparks' novels, but this one was by far my favorite. The story begins where "True Believer" left off, which is also a very good book. The story of Jeremy and Lexie is continued as they begin their lives together (I won't say too much for anyone wanting to read True Believer!) and the complications that arise while they receive bad news, deal with betrayal, guilt, suspicion, and the stresses marriage can create. I love the way Sparks writes and I feel this was perfectly done. I was left completely emotionally attached to the characters, feeling exactly as they felt as the novel moved along. In the end, I truly cried. I expected to be sad, but hadn't anticipated the ending at all. It was a beautifully touching book that I would recommend to anyone who likes Nicholas Sparks, is getting married, wants to have children/has children, or just enjoys an emotional story written beautifully.

Summary: Okay but Not Near His Best
Comment: This book is a romance between Jeremy, a successful New York
magazine columnist, who falls in love with Lexie, a country girl, and moves to her neck of the woods away from the city. The author delves into the dynamics of friendship, commitment, marriage, pregnancy and fatherhood. It gave insights into the adjustments involved in entering and maintaining a serious relationship by centering on Jeremy's and Lexie's feelings as their relationship progressed. The ending surprised me so I'd say it is a good book and recommend it to anyone who likes romance.

Summary: Disapponited!!
Comment: This was my very first novel by Sparks. I was soo looking forward to a good tear-jerker love novel, since I know of his work because the "The Notebook", the movie. Instead, I was very disapponited. I seen the ending coming and I agree with another comment, the main female character, made me mad, leaving me not to feel for her at the end. Mr. Sparks, I don't want to give up on you so soon but I think I need to come back to you at a later time. Any recommendation?

Summary: Least favorite Sparks book
Comment: Not a fan of this. I really enjoyed True Believer and thought this was would a great extension of that story. Not so..characters became less and less like-able as the story went on and it was difficult to feel part of their connection and great love story.

Summary: At First Sight
Comment: This is an emotionally-charged love story that is a continuation of another one of Nicolas Spark's books called True Beliver. This is a much more romantic and exciting book, however! The main characters Jeremy Marsh, the sophisticated writer from New York and Lexie Darnell, the beautiful librarian from Boone Creek, become engaged. The reason they become engaged so soon is that Lexie is pregnant. Jeremy is not sure that he is the father, but he proceeds anyway despite the warning signs. He decides to move to Boone Creek even though he is not sure it will work for career and personal happiness. As the couple get closer and closer to the wedding and the arrival of the baby, new challenges come their way. Throughout the book they are required to make difficult decisions and personal sacrifices if they want to stay together as a couple. In the end true love prevails. The ending of the story is not as I would have predicted, but made the story seem like a true story.
