Message in a Bottle

Customer Rating:

Like most of Sparks love novels, this novel is unique within its own story. Theresa Osborne is taking vacation in Cape Cod when she comes across a bottle, that has paper in it. She opens it to find out that a man named Garrett has written a letter to his wife revealing his love for her. Theresa is intrigued by this letter and wants to find out more about Garrett. She is divorced and lonely. So, she embarks on a journey to see if others have found similar messages and actually finds other messages. She falls in love with Garrett and decides to go and find him. A relationship does evolve, but there are problems that arise because they are two totally different people. This story is a great read and will bring tears to your eyes.

The worst since "Bridges of Madison County"	Customer Rating:
Formulaic, patronizing and dull. I'm just glad it was loaned to me, and that I didn't waste my money, just my time. The last time I read something this poorly written, it was "The Bridges of Madison County". If you liked that level of writing, you'll love this.

Can't believe it is the same author as The Notebook

Customer Rating:

After reading The Notebook, I was excited to pick up another hyped Nicolas Sparks book. But boy oh boy was it such a let-down. A third of the way through I started rolling my eyes. When I was half way though, I found that I didn't really care about the two characters and how their "relationship" would become. Three quarter through, I was hoping for one of them to die (how horrible was that!?). I just wish it was Theresa who died. She was a creepy stalker who jumped into bed with a practical stranger. And she "forgave" him for what he had done!? She was the one who needed to ask for forgiveness for publishing other people's private thoughts and looking him up and stalking him.

Far better than the movie!	Customer Rating:
I admit that I used to be a "movie only" person. But Sparks has changed that! With the exception of "The Notebook", his stories are superior to the movies they've turned out. I read this before even knowing there WAS a movie then tried to watch. I had Matthew M. as Garrett, Costener disappointed me. In other words...READ THIS BOOK!!

All about Tragic

Customer Rating:

I love the story because I love the plot of this story. The book is far more bewitching than the movie. If people just being simple and contributed for their lovers, may it will lead to the happiness. Whoever you are, a love loser, a divorced woman, a widower, walk out of your past and be acceptable. Believe God has other plans for you. Every step in your life will give you much more benifit for your future life, it's all about treasure, don't dwell on it. Move on!
