Title: Fifth Grade Drivel
Product review: I could only force myself to read to maybe page 55. I don't know if perhaps Mr. Sparks writing method is to write as if his main readership is 5th graders, but I could not handle the 7 word sentences. And words that do not reach past 2 syllables. I have read a few reviews of Mr. Sparks novels and they have stated "fast read". I like reads that are fast paced, that you don't want to put down. But this read is "fast" in that, as an adult, it will only take you 1/2 an hour to finish. If you can force yourself to actually complete it.However, if you like books that don't challenge your mind, like a vacation at Disneyland for the brain, go ahead and read this novel. But from seeing the movie, it's not really a happy book, so forget Disneyland. A vacation at your local WalMart. That's more apt a metaphor.
