Nicholas Sparks has sold over 43 million copies of his masterpieces with 6 of his 11 novels making the #1 New York Times Bestsellers list. A few of his books were made into major motion pictures with some that may ring a bell like The Notebook, Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember, Nights in Rodanthe and Dear John.
A good friend of mine gave me Dear John and as I started the book I got the feeling right away that this was far more than any other cheesy love story.
The story followed the life of a bold Soldier John that unexpectedly fell for the fragile Savanna. Their world wind of a relationship over seas for a couple of years test their love for each other and the faith they had in their future. With illness and a series of unexpected events like the September 11th disaster, this pair encountered far more than they could ever imagine.
With more than too many highs and lows to put you in shock and near to tears, this book ultimately teaches you one thing above all; love is not selfish. I must say the book is far more entertaining, realistic and detailed than the movie so if you want to watch the film, I suggest you check the book out first. The ending is the biggest surprise of all.
Kutos to Mr. Sparks, he can easily become one of your favorites.
