I found the book lacking. It lacked in heart, for the most part. Perhaps it is Sparks' choice to not divulge too deeply into the character's physical appearance, or much of the scenery. But for me, I found that to be one of the book's most concerning weaknesses. It was almost as if he wrote the book merely to tug at the heartstrings of some teenage girls. If that's what he did, then, I suppose it worked. The book reached quite distinct popularity, however, it's a book without substance. It's sad though; it had such potential. The story is a beautiful one. Had it been written by a different author, then perhaps it could have been what it was meant to be. It seems to me that Sparks has more talent making a few memorable quotes than writing an entire novel. It was rushed and repetitive. I'm not surprised the story was inspired by true events, Nicholas Sparks doesn't seem creative enough to me to come up with this idea on his own. His work is at best, amateurish, and insincere. What a waste of a truly great story.

The Notebook is inspiring. Sparks tells the story with passion. It starts out as a common, round-about book, that I've read so many times . . . but by the end . . . I'm captivated. The first time I read the book was when I was 13. Now I'm 16, and it seems like I've read it hundreds of times . . . never getting enough. Allie and Noah's romance has made me look forward to Love, but also to be patient and not to give up hope. It's a classic.
