Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas Book Review

Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson was on the shelf at the library when I was looking for one of his other series to start reading.  They didn't have that but they had this one.  I read one of his other letter books and decided to pick this up and check it out (hoping it wasn't the one that I already read but at a quick glance, it didn't seem like it).

In this book, Katie Wilkinson is dealing with her boyfriend and love of her life, Matt, leaving without any explanation.  She met him when he came in to her office to publish some of his poems and they fell quickly in love.  Soon after he leaves, he mails Katie a diary which is written by Suzanne to her son, Nicholas.  The diary gives the story of how Suzanne met Matt and started their family.  It is hard for Katie to read about the love in Matt's life when it has nothing to do with her and she feels that Matt has been living this double life for months with the wife and child at home.  Katie is heart broken but reads through the whole diary.  I hope that you pick it up to read the diary so that you can find out what happens.

I really had trouble putting this book down because I needed to find out what happened next.  I stayed up a lot too late but finished this quickly.  It was more than a page turner because it was riveting.  I couldn't wait to find out what happened next.  You felt the love and the sadness with Katie and wanted to keep reading to find out more.  I hope that you check out this book at your local library or bookstore and see what I mean.  Make sure you have a few tissues close by because you will be using them!
