Best of Me Book Review

The Best of Me by Nicholas Sparks was on my wish list and I got it for Christmas.  I kept it at the bottom of the pile because all the library books came first.  The good, the bad and the ugly of having all those library books is that you don't get to read the books you actually asked for and wanted so much that someone went out and bought them for you!!!  I love Nicholas Sparks!!  I love all his books and I have read many of them more than once so it is no surprise that I loved it.

I always think that this one is even better than the last but I think that it is just because I just finished reading and living it.  I laughed, I cried, and I thought it was wonderful.  If you are not looking to cry, you probably shouldn't read a Nicholas Sparks book because they always end up there at some point or another.

The book was about a first love that was rekindled when the two are connected later in life over the death of a friend of both of theirs.  Their memories from their young love and their current lives make you understand so much about both of them.  Their weekend together is enough to make anyone believe in the power of love.  I don't want to give the whole book away but it is a great love story (don't forget the tissues).

I hope that you check it out at your local library or bookstore.  If you decided to read one, you will want to get the list of all of his books because I promise that they are all just as good.  If you have seen some of the movies and enjoyed them (The Notebook, The Lucky One, The Last Song, Dear John, A Walk to Remember, Message In A Bottle, and Nights in Rodanthe).  If not, you should check them out too :)  Let me know which one is your favorite!!!!
