Title: Too Much Sugar, Not Enough Substance
Review: At the heart of this novel is a lovely and romantic story. However, a book needs more than a nice plot to make it a good read.Sparks seems unable to let his characters develop naturally. Instead, characters are introduced for the sole purpose of assuring the reader that the protagonist is a good and generous fellow, then quickly dropped.Add to this Sparks' bland narrative style and you're left with a story that feels hollow. This novel could have been so much more, but I finished the book feeling like I had been the victim of a cheap attempt to tug my heartstrings.
