True Believer - At First Sight SPOILER ALERT

I am a huge fan of Nicholas Sparks' books. I love most of his book :D Even after writing a lot of novels, he manages to always bring up a new, fresh stories. Well, that's what writers do, after all :p

A few months ago (Or was it last year?) I bought True Believer. It's a really touching story about a journalist from New York named Jeremy Marsh, and he came to this small city Boone Creek, to investigate some strange shadows of fog in a cemetery. There, he met Lexie Darnell, and fell in love. The rest of the book then  tells how the feelings resolved etc.

I love this book! It manages to capture the small town feel, with the closeness of the city members. And it's a happy ending book! I love happy endings! I think most Nicholas Sparks' novels end happily and that's why I love them :p


Then, last week when I went to Singapore, as usual, we went book hunting in Kinokunia. I love the place, have been coming there for years. Starting from looking for comics or children story books, to now novels and cookbooks :p ( I love seeing the delicious food photos :p ) And even though I found several interesting novels, I didn't really want to purchase them just yet, they were not 'attracting' enough, which was a real bummer -- I really wanted to buy something! I hadn't bought a new book for months now, and the last books that I bought - hmm let's just say they weren't very nice.

Then, I saw on one of the shelves, Nicholas Sparks' novels! All waiting for me to buy the, :p hehee
So I bought then the sequel of True Believer, which is At First Sight. I wanted to buy the other novels, of course, but I wanted to finish this 'series' first. And when I hold the book,  I was like, "ooh yeah, this is what i want." So I went ahead and bought it :)

That night I couldn't sleep! I couldn't take my eyes off the book! I started reading it and I just couldn't stop.

The story began with Jeremy leaving New York to now live in Boone Creek. He had proposed to Lexie before, and we learned from the ending of True Believer that Lexie is pregnant. This book told the 9 months they shared together, preparing the wedding, being a married couple, and facing their future as parents as well as other difficulties.

This book (SPOILER ALERT!!!!!) has a sad ending, though :(:(:(
I was really sad after reading it :( It did have a strong conclusion though, and if it didn't end that way, it won't be strong enough, and it won't be Nicholas Sparks. But still, I wished it could be happier :')


I finished reading at around 00:30 :p
super late for me, as every body else were already sleeping :p

Do i regret buying the book? No, not really. I just much prefer the True Believer, for sure :)


Hmmm can't wait to buy another novel :p The Longest Ride, maybe :)

CHEERS!
