I read this book before the movie, altough the movie is excellent, I recommend the book first. It will explain some things the movie does not.

This book was absoulty heart warming. Its inspiring too it teaches you never to give up on love and that you really dont ever forget about your first love. I have to say you've probably outdone yourself this time the book was awesome. I really hope you write more books like this one keep up the good work.
