Title: struggling writer from Idaho
Product review: This was a terrible book. The dialogue was cliched, the characters uninteresting and trite. It was so obvious Sparks was trying to appeal to a mostly female audience. The only good thing was the plot premise, but then it turned into predictable mush, even worse than a Mary Higgins Clark novel. The only thing that kept me reading is I wanted to see if it sucked all the way to the end, and it surely did. It is depressing that so many folks here thought this was such a great book -- either they don't read very often or I've overestimated the intelligence of the average reader. How this ever got published, or even made it past the first cut is amazing. Total fluff.This is what it takes to be successful today in America? It's the equivalent of some so-called rap artist becoming a millioniare that can't even sing or play an instrument. Sad.
