I didn't get it yet but I'm so excited for it!!!

I got it last night after work! I can't wait to read it!

It is a pretty good book

I'm just over a half way through and I am enjoying this book.

I am still looking forward to reading the novel! - :)Doug

Another good one by Sparks! I really enjoyed it!! :)

I just got it last week, it's on my books to read list, can't wait, heard it was really good

I really enjoyed this one! I couldn't put it down, just like all the others and I was sad to finish it! It was true to form!

Another wonderful story by Nicholas Sparks! Loved the ending!

Is there any link to read full version of the book ?

Farzan:

I'm not sure if this is a full version, but it was good enough for me. I always buy his books, but this helped while I waited for its release.

I'm still reading it. I hope to finish it real soon. I take my time when I read his books for some reason.

I really enjoyed this book and was anxious to see what would happen. It is a combination of romance and a bit of suspense even with a dog in it. Very nice story.

I LOVED this book...it is one of my favorites! I couldn't put it down. The ending was unexpected, but most of his books are. Thats why I love them!

Yes I agree with you because you chose proper word for his novels. unexpected is definitely right definition for his novels.

I just got done reading this book and LOVED it! I couldn't put it down. The ending was something I didn't expect but was super happy with.

I finished The Lucky One not too long ago, and honestly, I had a little trouble really getting into it.I mean it started off funny with the whole stealing the Sheriff's camera b/c he was taking provocative pics, but for some reason it started to slow down,but I did enjoy the ending. I kinda felt it lacked a certain kind of passion, like some of his previous works. Overall I did enjoy this book, but it was honestly not my favorite...sorry!!!..lol.

Haha, you don't have to be sorry for an opinion :) I think when I said "LOVED" I was a bit dramatic. Of the Nicholas Sparks books I've read, so far, this is my favorite. I think I just got excited that it had a happy ending and the person I loved the most didn't die. haha

Liz,
I totally agree..It's quite rare that Mr.Sparks actually allows his characters to have a "Happy Ending"..IE:They actually stay alive for once.lol. And for that, I'm with you a hundred percent, but just the overall feel felt a little on the drier side?..I don't know how to describe it...but I'm mostly pleased by the book, more than anything.lol.

I think thats why I would like to read more of his works, the way he ends them is real not the happy ever after fairy tale ending and well I enjoy that. I like the reality of it.

My eldest daughter's father died a few years back from cancer and I have to say that though I lost a friend I'm happy to know his pain and discomfort is over, the last 3 months were brutal on him. That is reality however his memory is loved and cherished with all the great memories he left us with.

*********NO SPOILERS :)*********

Anyone else reading this one? I'm close to the end now, and have to say that despite the 'formula' thats appearing in Sparks books I've really enjoyed this one. I

I really liked the idea that Nicholas Sparks used in this novel , I think that the idea was brilliant and the whole story attracts you in a way that you can not put the book down.

i am reading the lucky one now

I really enjoyed The Lucky One, love,suspense maybe a touch of paranormal:) great story. My next NS will be The Guardian, this is the only NS book my local library has and it's been out on loan for ages, but not today, so I bagged it while I could:)

Would've started it to~day but I finished 'The Lucky One' a couple of days ago, then read Sara Dessens 'Someone Like You' so felt like a change in genre. I'm read a Bertrice Small at the moment so will mark TG as my next read.

I am reading the Lucky One right now

I enjoyed enough to give it 4 stars. I like NSs Male charcters alot, and The Lucky One was suspenseful, which was something else I enjoyed.

I really like it so far.

it is won of my all time fv books

really

yep

I've read this book and can't wait to see the movie! I'm hoping that it's not a disappointment like the last movie/book.

I'm reading this book right now and I am really enjoying it.

I finished this book about a month ago and I loved it. I cannot wait until the movie, interested in seeing how it plays out.

Just finished it! And oh...my...gosh! It's my new favorite Sparks book! The last couple of pages are just so gripping! It'll be interesting to see how the movie is because sometimes the movie versions are terrible and sometime they're amazing!

I read this book and though the beginning was a little much. The cop/ex was an awful person. I think it's different when you read their thoughts!

I did like the book but I think the movie is going to be even better, really looking forward to seeing it!

Jocelyn-

What about the beginning did you think was too much? I only ask because my friend and I started reading this at the same time last year and she said the beginning was slow but I zipped right through it.

I thought that book was good

This is probably my favorite Nicholas Sparks book ever. I loved every minute of it . I was freaking out at the end because I that Logan and Keith were both dead. I almost cried in relief when Longan wasn't dead.

Loved the book and movie :)

I loved the movie. I found the book average

I saw the movie

To me the book was better

I agree with you
