I confessed I had no idea what was going on! There were references to various characters and past stories that I just felt like I wasn’t getting. Half way through the book, I felt a little lost, like I was missing a huge piece which made me kind of drag my feet reading it. Romance as a genre in general has never been one that I am particularly into though I do like Para-Romance books (I’ll swoon for Eric Northman any day!)….I just don’t understand the draw for romance novels like those by Sparks, and I REALLY don’t understand the draw for books like Danielle Steele, or some of the harlequin romance novels….though I am willing to give Sparks a shot. Now, in general I too fancy myself a jaded cynic so Nicholas Sparks has never really had any appeal to me what-so-ever….he seems a little too over the top sappy. However, at the behest of one of my friends, I decided to cave and read ONE Sparks novel. I am just not into Nicholas Sparks, and I had no interest in watching The Notebook let alone reading a Nicholas Sparks novel. I think I must be the only girl on earth who hasn’t seen The Notebook.
