He has a knack for pulling the reader right into the story.Dear John is story of love, loss and emotion. John had a hard time relating to his father. Then I read At First Sight, True Believer, Message in a Bottle.the list goes on and on. Savannah promises to wait for John to finish out his tour. When I found out the movie was based on a novel, I went to the bookstore and picked it up and read my very first Nicholas Sparks novel. Or that in the short time I've know you, I've come to believe that we were meant to be together. Or that the days I've spent with you have been the happiest in my life.
Have the tissues ready. If you love a good, seamless love story that pulls on your heart strings, then you need to read Dear John. If Sparks writes it, I will read it. What if you took a different path in life. I could say all those things and all would be true, but as I reread them, all I can think is that I wish I were with you now, holding your hand and watching for your elusive smile."The two continue their relationship through romantic letters, then the events of 9/11 happen and John re-enlists.
And what about the tougher questions, like how long would you wait for the one you love. His books are on my auto-buy list. and the fact that a movie was made based on the novel, I wanted to revisit John and Savannah.I think it goes without saying that Nicholas Sparks is one of my favorite authors. It is a story that begs the question 'what if.'. Sparks has a way of getting the reader immersed in his story, longing for more. It is a story you will not soon forget. Should I start by telling you that I love you.
His father's coin collecting hobby kept them close for a short while. I fell in love with his writing style, the characters and with North Carolina (the state itself is a character in its own right in each of his novels). His two-week furlough is up and he has to return to Germany. I was completely and utterly captivated with Noah and Allie's story. Savannah writes first. Let me start off by saying that I am not a re-reader.
Dear John is about a love lost but not forgotten. You will find yourself asking "what if.". Dear John, "There's so much I want to say to you, but I'm not sure where I should begin. Can love survive the distance.John is a bit of a rebel but never fell too far off the right path. What if you made the wrong choice.
Over time, the two grew further apart. Would you still end up at the same destination. It all started with the movie The Notebook. The two continue their relationship through handwritten letters. But when I saw the re-release of Dear John by Nicholas Sparks (with Channing Tatum on the cover.). It is on a break from school, when she's volunteering for Habit for Humanity, that she meets John and the two fall quickly in love.Neither John or Savannah were expecting to fall in love but their attraction was inevitable. Would you live to regret it.
His stories of timeless, endless love will captivate your heart and stay with you. You will cry. My philosophy is why re-read when you can read something new, right. The distance and time apart put a toll on their relationship. And the questions of "what if." begin.Dear John is one of my favorite reads by Nicholas Sparks. She dreams of opening up a horse ranch for autistic kids.
She's an all-around good girl; you could even call her a goody two-shoes. She lives in a small town and is very close to her parents. I wanted more. I don't agree with some of the choices made by either John or Savannah but John's selfless act at the end of the story made me proud. He was raised by his father, though the two weren't all that close. After high school, John realized he wasn't going anywhere in life so he enlisted with the Army for a 4-year tour.Savannah is a girl who is pure and full of naïve innocence.
Your heart will ache. In fact, you need to read everything by Nicholas Sparks.
This is a story that every girl dreams of. It captures the love of the two lovers. This is a fasinating book and unbievable story showing that there is a love for everyone you just have to find it.
I am still curious to see how it is. I have a feeling I will be let down by the movie, as it always is when you read the book first.
I decided to get this book for my Kindle and, after the somewhat slow start, I got into it. I've never read a romance novel, but my wife got me to watch The Notebook and I thought it was a pretty decent movie.
My wife and I are going to watch the movie tonight. It's a really good story with a great ending.
Of course the ending is debatable by some, but I enjoyed it. I already see certain things I don't like, such as the fact that the actor doesn't have any tattoos or muscles and he seems like much more of a "pretty boy" than Sparks describes him.
4 stars only because I'm still not sold on romance novels.
I wasn't expecting that much from this book. I loved the Notebook but I know that Sparks is an easy going writer and easy to digest. I read this quickly, snowed in from a blizzard and it was exactly what I wanted, easy romantic fluff. Nice beach read.
This book. Read it years ago and thought this was not up to the standard of lets see maybe the "The Notebook". Terriable.
