Book is not new, contrary to what the specifications said, but it is in good condition. It takes 13-15 days to arrive, which is a long time, usually only takes 3 days. good experience. I would buy again.

This is a well written book, a love story. Two people from opposite sides of the tracks become friends, then fall in love. They go their separate paths. The death of a friend and mentor brings them back to their hometown. Each person is at a turning point in their lives. The book shows the folly of retribution and personal pride and how it can irrevocably change lives forever. In the end, this is a touching contemporary love story. Love and forgiveness are the most important aspects of the book. This book is for lovers. The ending will stay with you.

I like the stories Nicholas Sparks tells, but I find I'm distracted by his writing style. Who am I to criticize a New York Times Bestselling Author? But really, the first three chapters were all backstory. He uses passive writing. Almost every paragraph he overuses the word "had", sometimes ten times. If you aren't as criticical as me, you may really enjoy this book. Sad in parts, but realistic, too. It's true there is something about a first love that you compare all others to. The story is about regrets and choices and committments.
