Review: Beware of all the "10" reader ratings. I found this book lacking in substance & character depth. Sparks doesn't even take the trouble to explain why the "sparks" flew between the two main characters or why the flame kept burning for so long. I laughed all the way to the ending. "The Notebook" is nothing but a spin-off of the "Bridges" tale by Waller. Why can't writers & their editors come up with more unique idea content? I mean, come on, let's give everyone reading the book a good cry now by letting one of the character's come down with Alzheimer's. I found this book a feeble attempt at capturing the essence of enduring love. I think if the book is ever made into a movie, I will save my seven dollars & cut my losses. I gave this book a "2" rating only because Nicholas Sparks gets a 1 pt advantage for a man trying to write a romance. Anybody want to buy my copy??
