This book was the epitamy of the perfect love story. I firmly believe that a love like this is possible and it is my dream to some day have a love like this for myself.

I was really disappointed in this book. The story was so sappy I could hardly read it. The characters were shallow and the story had no plot. I read this book because I thought the movie previews looked good. But as soon as I forced myself to finish reading it, I put it in the discard pile and will not go see the movie.

I love this book . I read it in about three days .There wnere moaments that i cired and laughed and everything else . I want you too write more books like this. WOW

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.

This book is so breathtakingly moving... there are no words.

OMG!!! i jus love dis book ..... i want love like that!!

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.
