The Best Of Me - Nicholas Sparks Review

Hey

Today I bring you a review from the talented Nicholas Sparks, he also features on my current Reading List.

The Best Of Me

Nicholas Sparks

Published: 2012
292 Pages

Amazon | Waterstones | Barnes & Noble

                                  

Description: The Best Of Me is the heart-rending story of two small-town former high school sweethearts from opposite sides of the tracks. Now middle-aged, they've taken wildly divergent paths, but neither has lived the life they imagined...and neither can forget the passionate first love that forever altered their world. When they are both called back to their hometown for the funeral of the mentor who once gave them shelter, they will be forced to confront the choices each has made, and ask whether love can truly rewrite the past.

Review: As with every Nicholas Sparks book you find yourself drawn into the story, before you know it your bawling your eyes out. I really enjoyed this story. Of course it's another love story but a unique one all the same, it leaves you wishing you could experienced a love like that.

I felt connected with the two main characters, Nicholas sparks sure knows how to transport you into their world. It touches your heart and shows you what true love is like. Even though it does get sad and you end up screaming "NO" at the book, everything turns out like it should. And some how Nicholas captures all this in a mere 292 pages. Genius!

My rating: 5/5

Would I recommend?: Yes, there hasn't been a Nicholas Sparks novel I haven't liked.

Mistress - James Patterson Review

Hey

I recently read another book by James Patterson and decided it was time for another review.

Mistress

James Patterson

Published: 2013

Amazon | Waterstones | Barnes & Noble

Description: Ben isn't like most people. Unable to control his racing thoughts, he's a man consumed by his obsessions: movies, motorcycles, presidential trivia-and Diana Hotchkiss, a beautiful woman Ben knows he can never have. When Diana is found dead outside her apartment, Ben's infatuation drives him on a hunt to find out what happened to the love of his life. Ben soon discovers that the woman he pinned got was hiding a shocking double life. And now someone is out to stop Ben from uncovering the truth about Diana's illicit affairs. 

Review: I was really disappointed with this book. I normally love everything he writes but a few of his books haven't been that good and this one falls into that cateorgary. I found the story line is just a little too far fetched. I found it to be all over the place and am now wondering if that's the point seeing as how Ben is a bit mental. 

While the book did keep me reading it was only to see what the big secret was which I can say I didn't see coming and while I did read to the end I still felt it was boring and probably could have saved myself some hours by not reading it.

My Rating?: 3/5

Would I recommend?: No, unless you are dying to know what the secret is.
