Title: The neediest man I ever read about!
Product review: Nicholas Sparks only succeeded in disappointing me with "Message in a Bottle." The plot was contrived and the characters were repulsive! If Sparks was attempting to create romantic and sensitive characters, he failed miserably with Garrett Blake. This sorrowful, broken-hearted character is supposed to be sensitive, but ends up as a seriously needy lump of a man who can't mend his shredded heart. Theresa Osborne on the other hand, his second true love, is overconfident to the point of being cocky and downright rude. For lovers of Sparks' "The Notebook" his latest work will leave you feeling empty and cheated. It's neither romantic nor touching, it's simply a 300 page treatise on the pitfalls of codependency.
