Title: One Big Disappointment
Product review: After reading The Notebook, I was really looking forward to reading Message in a Bottle...I thought for sure it would be as good, if not better, but was I ever wrong. I received the audio book as a gift, so I decided to try that out instead of reading the book. Maybe that was my first mistake. I listened to it straight through, and I didn't shed a single tear. The story just wasn't filled with the emotions that The Notebook had. I was hoping for something at least a little uplifting...this story doesn't hold a candle to Sparks' first novel. Maybe it is better when you read it for yourself. At any rate, I don't recommend the audio version.
