I bought this book 'The Notebook' by Nicholas Sparks quite while ago but I didn't manage to read them. This is my third book by Nicholas Sparks after 'Dear John' and 'A Walk To Remember'. I really admire Nicholas Sparks anyway, why? because he made me read! lol I was not a book person before. I did not like reading.. I sleep when I read or I read when I want to sleep..
I decided to bring this book along my journey to Jakarta a few days ago since I have to wait for this and that in the airport. Surprisingly, I finished like half book already. It's really really a good book. One thing I like from Nicholas Sparks' book is they are very touching and inspiring. However, all three books I've been reading have sorta similar plot of story. There is always a couple that has been fallen in love so deeply but not faith to be together at the end. Seriously when I'm reading those books, my eyes will be unconsciously watery.
An old guy named Noah still cant replace a girl he had more than decades ago. A socialite girl named Allie is engaged to a successful lawyer and will be holding a wedding ceremony in the next 2 weeks. However, something has bothered Allie that makes her going back to the place she fell in love for the first time. In short, faith has directed Allie and Noah to meet. But, will faith guide them until the end of their life?
I haven't finished reading it yet. So, I'll tell you guys the complete story in brief when I finish reading it. But I do think that you guys should read this book instead of just watching the movie. I heard lots of good reviews of this movie. However, I'm sure after you read the book, the movie is nothing! I tried to read A Walk To Remember then watch the movie. It's NOTHING like seriously! My friends said "ur gonna cry when you watch the movie". You know what? I didn't even finish the movie because it is slightly different from the book. You can't really feel the touch, the real value of the story from the movie.
Some inspiring quotes from The Notebook
"It was a terrible thing for a girl to learn. That status is more important than feelings."
"We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created"
"It's just that sometimes, our future is dictated by what we are, as opposed to what we want"
