Summary:

"Dear John," the letter read. And with those two words, a heart was broken and two lives changed forever.
When Savannah Lynn Curtis comes into his life, John Tyree knows he is ready to turn over a new leaf. An angry rebel, he had enlisted in the army after high school, not knowing what else to do. Then, during a furlough, he meets Savannah, the girl of his dreams. The attraction is mutual and quickly grows into the kind of loe that leaves Savannah vowing to wait for John while he finishes his tour of duty. But neither can forsee that 9/11 is about to change the world. Like so many proud men and women, John must choose between love and his country. Now, when he finally returns to North Carolina, John will discover how love can transform us in ways we never could have imagined.

My Thoughts:

OH MY GOD!!! I have never read anything by Sparks but this book definatly makes me want to read more. Hmm.. I predict more sparks books in this blog. I've seen many Sparks movies (The Notebook, Nights in Rodanthe, and soon this one) but i've never had an interest to read a novel by him. I LOVE THIS BOOK!! This book is humorous and very very emotional. It also provides amazing details into the life of a soldier and how torn one can be between two things. This book is also very educational when it comes to surfing, coins, a disease, and just plain life. I shed several tears reading this book because its so painful and heartbreaking to read. The characters are amazing. John is the narrarator and he tells a story about his life before and after meeting the woman of his dreams. Very intense novel.
READ READ READ!!!
p.s. this book is a movie now... coming soon to theatres :-)

So... go to your local bookstore or order online just as long as you dont make this a book full of forgotten pages

Talk to you guys later
