This book is about two young couples name Allie and Noah. They both were dating until Allie's parents told them to break up because Noah is a poor young man. Then the war came by, Noah was drafted into the war. Later on, Noah built this big house and lots of people wanted to buy his house but he said no because that house was for him and Allie to live in. Aliee finally saw the house and went to his house- they both met each other after all these years. This book is interesting because it is like fate, waiting for your old love to come back to you and that person did. There is a movie about it also and you could watch the movie or read the book too.

I loved this book, I think it's one of the kinds of books that alot of pregnant teens or teenagers who can relate to about their first time, first kiss, or their experience. But this book was about a 15 year old girl name Valerie who is dating Peter. Peter is 17 and a senior who has good plans to go after high school. His parents are rich and they are looking into sending him to Harvard, Yale and all those big expensive colleges. But when dating, things kind of get out of hand when you two are alone. They had movie nigt alone and when kissing leads to making out, it becomes a new level of intimacy. Valerie was concern about her period and kept thinking about how she will explain everything to Peter. Soon she found out that she is already 4 months pregnant, which led her to shocking news. Her parents was upset and Peter's parents was also upset. They did not let them both see each other while they both sneaked out at night to see one another. It's another love story and they thought they were in love until Peter's father shipped him off to the east coast to Massachusets for school. They lost contact and only sent letters by mail to one another but that took so long. The love and big dreams they had for each other was soon long gone when she found out he was never coming back. She decided to put the baby for adoption because she did not want to ruin Peter's dream and realistically she cannot raise the baby all by herself if the father is not there. It was sad and being heart broken is never a fun idea. But it was for the best of them both. They fell in love and out of love. I really enjoyed reading this book and it was very interesting

This book is the final book in the Wake trilogy. It revolves around a girl named Janie who gets sucked into the dreams of others. She has no way of controlling it. If she steps into a room with her delusional alcoholic mother dreaming she will be able to see her mother's dream. She feels the pull and she becomes numb all over. She had to keep it a secret from everyone which was hard since many of her classmates would fall asleep in class and she would have no choice but to see what they were dreaming. Then she falls in love with a guy who soon finds out her secret. Caleb stays with her even though they both learn the hard truth of Janie's future. She had to make the choice of staying with him to leaving due to this cold hard truth. Then there's also the issue of his father who seems to have just appeared into her life once again. She has to deal with so many problems all at once and she feels like she has no one to talk to since the guy she loves starts to have dreams about her that she is able to see as well and they aren't cute lovey dovey things either.

It wasn't just about loving yourself but about falling in love in the process. Hayley is always pressured of her weight and her attitude towards it makes me love her character. She hates her size but yet she embrace it. She jokes around with it even if it did hurt her and when she leaves to Italy for a summer trip, she takes on a new adventure. She realizes that she has to love herself and while being there, she falls in love. She experience a new life, a new her. The boy she meets there just sounds wonderful too because he gives her attention and takes her on hikes and scenery she would have never gone if it wasn't for him, Enzo. The thing I hated the most about this book was the end. Basically she had to return home and that just breaks my heart of the bond her and Enzo had.

what i liked about this book is all those shocking stuff that i would not believe to even be possible. Like for example the guy that can get metal to stuck to him. on page 71 . he says that is a family thing. And Dr. Mohamed Amin says Lin's ability has nothing to do with magnetic properties, but with the fact that Lin's skin has a special suction effect that can help metal stick to it. Its amazing how that can be possible for a human to be able to do. He also had a chain attached to a plate stuck in his chest. All the stories in this book are surprising, because you can't really believe them.

It depends on how you view it. Savahnna left John and married Tim while John was still in military. John's father passed away and he sold his father's coin collection to give the money to Savahnna and Tim to cure their son. It was loving and sad but I always love Nicholas Spark's books. I enjoy the love stroeies that he always writes about. It's a great book and although they did not get to marry each other, it was a great memory and their first love that they will always remember. Sometimes you read his books ans say, "I wish this happened to me" but the ending isn't always happy. But first love will always be first love. I enjoy reading the letters that they both sent to each other too. It was very touching and loving and reminds me of long distance that alot of relationships can relate to
