Grand Central Publishing Message in a Bottle

It was OK, it's very easy to read, but the depth that I think that he aims for with his writing just doesn't have that effect on me.I had read The Notebook some time ago and didn't enjoy it (gave it 1 star) and eventually decided to try Message in A Bottle, and while I found it an improvement on The Notebook, it just doesn't make me want to read further. I now know that I'll stop at this point with Nicholas Sparks.Cooking meals, having drinks, walking on the beaches, talking and some love making isn't very interesting for me to read about.

A divorcée who’s a journalist and mother of a twelve-year old son, finds a message in a bottle washed up on the beach. The message is so touching, that she shares its contents in her column, and then learns that this message in this bottle is by no means unique. Intrigued, she sets out to find the man capable of writing such tender letters.I don’t go in for romantic novels, but this is not typical, having rather an unusual slant on the genre. There were parts, early on, that I found tiresome, where I was inclined to scan, but I did later become gripped by the story.

Having first randomly watched the film adaption a few years ago, I decided to read the book after reading many reviews of it.I adore this book one of my all time favourites.I love the writing style and the unique story.When I was nearly at the end of the book I ordered the film adaption off here and after watching it realised it just doesnt compare to the book as the film misses a lot of the book out.I'd recommend this book to any avid reader especially of the romance genre.Be warned though its a tear-jerker.

Good story, but so sickly sweet it made me want to throw up. The film is better.

I loved this book!I couldn't put it down, you feel like you know the characters you feel what they feel you become a part of their journey everyone has lost someone in their lives and experienced somesort of heartache, you can't help but put yourself in their shoes.It was a lovely read and you will cry, as I did and you will need a box of tissues for the ending because it will break your heart.
