Book Reviews of True Believer
Book Review: A little too cheesy
Summary: 2 Stars
This book was just okay. It is my second Nicholas Sparks book, and I am trying to figure out why he is so loved. Both the books I have read, "A Bend in the Road" and now "True Believer" were just okay. Both of these books seemed to follow the formula of boy and girl meet, boy and girl fall in love after some apprehension by one of them, boy and girl encounter snag in relationship, boy and girl work everything out in the end. Also, am I the only one that feels these are so unbelievably cheesy that they just want to gag?? The last line of "True Believer" almost had me lose my dinner it was so disgustingly cheese-ball.Book Review: No Sparks this time
Summary: 3 Stars
I usually love Nicholas Sparks' books but this one seemed to drag on and on. I couldn't feel the connection between Jeremy and Lexie. So predictable but was hoping that they would say goodbye in the end so as to end the boredom of their relationship.
Book Review: How is this guy so famous?
Summary: 1 Stars
I have seen a couple of Spark's book-adapted movies and loved them, so i thought i would take a chance on his writing. I felt no connection to his characters, the plot was slow, and i was very disappointed. The book wasn't worth the time it took to read. Sorry, nicholas. Maybe, hopefully, his other stuff is better.Book Review: wasn't very interesting. i felt like it dragged on too long. the ending was okay, but not great.
Summary: 3 Stars
It was an okay book. It spanned a short time period. It wasn't very interesting and the romance wasn't nearly as intense as it was in "the notebook", "the wedding", and "message in a bottle." That's what I love about Sparks though. I love to feel the passion and the intense romance in his writing. I didn't feel that here. I felt it dragged a little. I wish the lights had involved the lighthouse and not what the true answer was. I didn't like the ending too much. It was okay, but too cliche. I could have done without what Lexie said in the end. I felt like it wasn't necessary.
thank you for your time

Book Review: Tedious Read
Summary: 1 Stars
This book seemed to just drag on and on and the two main characters just never jelled in my opinion. How does one fall in love in one week? Two such different people? Not very realistic and the interaction between them always seemed more strained then loving. In the sequel, At First Sight, this smaller book was the true ending to True Believer. The sequel should never been a book alone but the way True Believer should have ended in the first place. The abrupt ending had me saying "huh?"in the first book and the second book was more of the same for me with these two characters and I won't ruin it for those who haven't read At First Sight yet by telling the ending but the ending for me just didn't sit well. It just made the both books seem pointless.
