Amazon.com Review:
"Somewhere," muses Noah Calhoun, while sitting on his porch in the moonight, "there were people making love." The Notebook, a Southern-fried story of love-lost-and-found-again, revolves around a single time-honored romantic dilemma: will beautiful Allison Nelson stay with Mr. Respectability (to whom she happens to be engaged), or will she choose Noah, the romantic rascal she left so many years ago?

After having seen the Notebook film many times I decided to read the book. It's a lot shorter than I thought (only around 200 pages) and the book itself is pretty small. I enjoyed reading this book. Nicholas Sparks is a good author and I liked his writing style. His writing is very easy to understand and you can read it very fast. He writes from both Allie and Noah's perspective. It only took me about two days to read this book. Good details and descriptions.
There are a lot of differences between the book and the movie. The movie obviously adds more drama to the story. It also leaves out some characters written in the book that I think are important to the character's development. I would definitely recommend that you read the book. Good story line of two people who fall in love and more than a decade later come together again. Nicholas Sparks adds some love letters between Noah and Allie in the book. I really liked them as they gave a deeper insight into Noah and Allie's relationship.
I will definitely read this book again someday.

When I first discover this book I loved it! the charaters wer great. They where madly in love, and you could tell with everything they did. Noah was a strong sensitive man, and Allie was a sweet confident girl. They fit together perfectly! It was so romantic, how they fall in love, but can' be together, but find each other in the end.It had a sad ending, but it was still great! It's a beautiful romance thats wonderful for all ages!

I couldn't agree more with those individuals who gave this book a 1 star rating. If I could give it a no star rating I probably would. I was actually very upset with myself for spending 4 or 5 of my hard earned dollars simply to buy this waste of paper. I could have spent that money on a latte and I could have better spent my time doing something fun and productive. Really really awful writing- it's very trite, bland, and repetitive. Seriously, I think Sparks probably could have made this a ten page book if he had taken out all the cheesy love stuff and just gotten right to the point. I like a good love story, but this was definitely not it. This book was pretty much a pathetic excuse for a romance novel. Oddly enough, I adored the movie. The movie made me want to read the novel. And on most occasions, isn't the novel supposed to surpass the movie in quality? Not so in this case. Just wanted to vent because this was easily the worst book I have ever read, no exaggerations. I really don't understand how this was published. If you like an easy (and I mean 3rd grade reading level easy- no insult intended to 3rd graders) read and don't mind corny and emotionally unfulfilling writing, then this may be your kind of book. Otherwise, just rent the movie.
