Message in a bottle by Nicholas Sparks
Theresa Osborn is a columnist out of Boston and her son Kevin is on vacation with his dad. Theresa is on the Cape enjoying her time by herself when she finds a bottle on the beach with a note inside.
Her editor thinks they should do a story about the letter...the research leads her to Wrightshead Beach off the coast and she does run into the person who wrote the letters. More had surfaced since the story was published in the paper.
The story also follows Garrett and his marina experience and his life with Katherine and their times together.
Loved hearing of the water, navigation by stars and surrounding areas and their journey together as what they do in actions are paralleled to what Katerhine and Garrett had done...
Untold secrets could keep them away from one another, will they reveal them?
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).

Nicholas Sparks knows how to do romance. I enjoy the books when I am looking for the boy meets girl, something happens to cause an obstacle, obstacle is overcome and they get back together or it ends up how it is supposed to be kind of story.

This was my first Nicholas Sparks novel I ever read and I absolutely loved it. I read it when it first came out and I can remember staying up super late one night just to finish it with tears streaming down my face. (This is a definite tear jerker so be prepared). I've never actually watched the movie because once I read the book I tend to skip the movies, but the book was truly amazing.

This. Is. Such. A. Sad. Book. You know how you always know the sad part before the main character? Well the sad part happened, I didn't realize it until the main character did.

A good read if you're in the mood for something sappy and typical. The writing is good, the plot is pleasant. It is not challenging. Great novel for the beach or lounging by the pool. Sparks does do a GREAT job with imagery as you can visualize everything happening as its written which makes reading it that much nicer.

This is one of Nicholas Sparks better novels. It's true to his style and the story, while very sad, sends such a powerful message. The characters are memorable to say the least and the book has definitely made an impact on me.
