The Notebook Recommendadtion: Checkpoint #3

I just finished the book The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks. It is a love story about two people, Allie and Noah, who get reunited after being apart for almost fifteen years. Allie is engaged, but when she gets to know Noah again, she debates who she should be with. On page 37, it says, "She heard the shock in his voice as he spoke, and surprising her, it all came together - being here, seeing him. She felt something twitch inside, something deep and old, something that made her dizzy for just a second. She caught herself fighting for control. she hadn't exppected this to happen, didn't want it to happen. She was engaged now. She hadn't come here for this". This book is very entertaining and hard to put down, with plot twists and cliff hangers making you want to read more. There is a lot of imagery, so you can picture everything that is happening. It is also written in third person, so you can know both character's perspectives, instead of only knowing one side of the story. The ending wasn't my favorite, but I still thought it was really good. I would recommend this book to any teenage girl who likes romance, or to anyone who likes other books and movies by Nicholas Sparks.

  1. I like the post that you made! Some things I like about it are that you made a good summary of the book because you made the summary sound interesting and did not give away the endings. Another thing I liked was that you payed attention that the book has a lot of imagery. I have also read the book and would agree to this although I didn't like it too much. I think that it would appeal to people who like drama, love triangles and romance books. I think to make the blog post even better next time you could try making the blog post a little lengthier. Also I think you could add a quote to it to make it even better. Other than that, nice job!
