Book Reviews of The Lucky One
Book Review: Sparks Hits it out of the Park!
Summary: 5 Stars
After 2 dogs (At First Sight and True Believer) and 1 so-so book (The Choice), Sparks is back in fighting form. This book rocks! It has all the elements of a great story...the dastardly villain, the scruffy hero, and the beautiful princess. Throw in an ailing grandmother and a gangly,nerdy son and you've got yourself a bonified page-turner. I couldn't wait to go to bed each night so I could crack open The Lucky One. That's the ultimate in praise from me because I usually hate going to bed. I gave the book to my brother yesterday because I thought he would like it. He's read about 3 books in his life, and he said he, too, was glued to it. He especially liked reading about the war in Iraq and he appreciated all the military references. One thing that bugged me, however, was Sparks' use of the word "pull" whenever anyone took a drink of beer. He would say "Thibault took a long pull of beer." For some reason I would cringe each time that term was used (6 times in this book.) I mean c'mon, who says that? Aside from that little issue I thought The Lucky One was one of the most enjoyable books I've read in several months. Highly recommended for men, women and teens. A great classic tale of good versus evil.
