Negative Positive
Title: Empty and meaningless....
Review: It is obvious while reading THE NOTEBOOK that Nick Sparks agonized painfully over ever word he typed, that every sentence was a struggle in his simplistic mind. I've stepped in rainpuddles that weren't as shallow as his characters. Each character lives more in the past than in the present, and I personally found it hard to swallow that two people that met at age 15 for a month or two during the summer could wait almost 15 more years hoplessly in love with each other. And when they DO get together, they spend all their time "remembering" those summer months. I love a good romance, but this was just sickening. I reccomend reading it only because it is so bad, it's hard to believe. His second book was even worse...
