I cried so hard it was sad. Don't read this book if you are sick! There was tissue all over my room at the end of this book. But it was worth it.

Dear John (2006) Report Abuse
This book is a great read for somebody seeking a great love story. Sparks puts you right into the mind of the main character and shows you how you can be changed for the best through love. The conclusion will give you hope that that there is someone out there for you, even when you have lost all hope. A great weekend love story read.

It was my first book by Sparks. He explains what true love is, how things change in the least expected ways and so on. Loved this book so much that i was so excited to read the rest of Nicholas Sparks' books.

The Notebook (1996) Report Abuse
One of the most loved movies, The Notebook, was based off this Sparks novel. A novel about love lost and love found is a touching work that will be sure to have you reaching for the Kleenex.

I don't have the words to describe how I felt after reading this novel! I was left heart-broken, happy, releived, upset and torn, all at the same time due to the incredible yet sadening ending!

this book is a guaranteed tear-jerker! It will take you places, let your eyes see the breath-taking ocean from a pier, show you what true love is like, and show you what its like to be a struggling, rebelious, love struck teen.

This was the first Nicholas Sparks novel I read and it was just amazing. The plot (finding-girl-from-photo thingy) was unimaginable but Sparks made it seem real. I found myself looking forward to read most of his novels.

This book was pretty boring, it was more of a loooooongggg drama then a love story, I hardly felt like the characters were really in love.

One of the best works by Sparks. The book deals with different aspects and is a thriller. But the end leaves us dropping a few or more tears.

The Choice (2007) Report Abuse
Another tear jerker from Sparks. This book, filled with tragedy and love will have you yearning for more. This is the sequel to his #1 book, "True Believer." Sparks fills the pages of this book with vivid characters and real emotion, which make it difficult to put down once you start reading.

This book was most definitley worth my time to read and I am glad I did! It was a real tear-jerker that made me want to cry half the novel but i held it together while anticipating the fabulous end. Overall, I recomend this novel to anybody with an abstract mind and a love for romance.

Better than the Notebook(for me). Put tears in my eyes for the whole last chapter. Though, it was sad there was a story behind all of it that made my heart ache.

I hate Sparks some times. This book is soooo sad. I read to get away from the sad things in life and this book just throws it at you. If you like happy endings DON'T read this book. :(...

Three Weeks With My Brother (2004) Report Abuse
This is a book that will make you laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time. In this memoir, Sparks takes you on his journey around the world - one he took with a very special person in his life - his brother. He shares his experiences and makes you feel as though you were there with the 2 of them.
