"Nights in Rodanthe" - Nicholas Sparks

I haven't been reading Nicholas Sparks' books for a while - not new ones, I mean. Of course I re-read my old ones! :D

But it's because I've noticed a pattern in most of his books, and it just becomes predictable :') Only a few books 'deviate' from the norm.. including this one!

I've watched bits of Nights in Rodanthe before (Richard Gere, hello?), but I haven't fully known the story.
And as cheesy as it is, I LOVE THIS STORY!! :):)

Because I've watched the movie, I have a 'visual' of the setting of the inn (cuz I don't think it's extensively described in the book) and of the beach. And it's a good starting point, bcs the story really starts there.

The journey is, well, kind of expected. (Of course you saw it coming. Why do you read NS' books?) But what I actually really adore is the ending. I won't spoil it here, but it's the best part of the book I think :)
I think it makes the whole book a whole lot more meaningful than when you're still in the middle of it. Not a lot of ending does that. Most of the time they just emphasize something, or stamp something on your forehead, forcing you to remember the book. This one, for me does the opposite. It eases its way out, and carry you away with it. It lifts the story you just read. It is amazing!!

Now I'd really like to watch the movie and see if it is accurate (or better, or worse) than the book. Compare compare!
And I'm - more than ever - quite keen on reading "See Me" :D

A good one, Nicky. A good one.

CHEERS!
