  • Another Nicholas Sparks Tearjerker

    Book Cover off of Amazon

    If I haven’t said it before, Nicholas Sparks is one of my FAVORITE authors. As a reader throughout my life, I devoured books. As I grew up and started to get out of young adult books, Nicholas Sparks was one of the first adult romance authors that I tried (and fell in love with).

    Since I started writing reviews on Medium and now here, I have read Counting Miracles. Before I had kids, I have read most of his books. Now, I have been playing catch-up. Plus, I downloaded several Sparks’ books last week, so I will read and review more of them!

    In Two By Two, we meet Russell Green. His life seems perfect at thirty-two. He has a beautiful wife and an adorable daughter. He is a successful advertising executive, moving up in his career. His wife, Vivian, can stay home and care for his daughter.

    Then, things begin to change. Russ loses his job and tries to start his own advertising company. It isn’t as simple as he had imagined, and his wife decides to go back to work, leaving him in charge of his daughter, while starting a new business.

    As Vivian starts traveling more for work, Russ has to pick up the slack, taking care of the house and his daughter while trying to find time to build a business that he can be proud of.

    He doesn’t do this alone. He has the help of his loving parents and his amazing sister, Marge. He also runs into an old girlfriend (the one who got away), which makes him question his life even more!

    All of Nicholas Sparks’ books make me cry, and this was no exception. As you feel for Russ, who is just trying to do the right thing, it makes you think about your own marriage or relationship. Is it really as stable as you think? Is your good life good enough for someone else? What do you really want out of life?

    Readers will adore this book. Another winner by Nicholas Sparks!

  • There is NEVER a Bad Nicholas Sparks Book!

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    Though Nicholas Sparks is a favorite author of mine, I haven’t been buying his books like I used to. It is not because I don’t love them. There are so many good books for free on my Kindle that I rarely buy books anymore. However, I recently got a gift certificate, and I splurged on a few books by my favorite authors, including Sparks.

    The Wish by Nicholas Sparks brings us to New York City, where Maggie Dawes is a successful photographer with her own gallery. Though she has traveled the world, her illness has kept her close to home for quite a while. As she approaches her last Christmas, she bonds with her new assistant as he discovers the beauty of New York during the holiday season.

    During their nights together, she begins to tell him a story of her favorite Christmas, back in 1996. Though she wasn’t happy to be sent to live with her aunt in the remote village of Ocracoke, it turned out to be the best thing for her.

    There weren’t many teenagers on the island, so she really struggled until she met Bryce Trickett. Bryce was everything she wasn’t. He was smart and had his whole life planned out, while she was pretty lost and struggling. What started as tutoring turned into something better as he introduced her to photography. Then, they fell in love, but Maggie’s age and Bryce’s drive to succeed and go far kept them apart when Maggie had to return home!

    If you love Nicholas Sparks (or you have never read anything of his), you really need to read The Wish. You won’t regret it!

  • Can You Really Be Happily Married Fifteen Years Later?

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    Millie and Tom were only eighteen years old when they found out that they were going to have a baby. So, they did what any young couple would do? They got married and starred in a TV documentary about teenage marriage.

    Even though their families weren’t so sure that it was the right thing to do, they have managed to raise a family and are approaching their fifteenth wedding anniversary. They are both working hard, struggling with money, and raising two teenage daughters. Life isn’t as easy as it was back then.

    When the TV crew wants to do a follow-up to the documentary, Millie is worried that certain things are going to come out in the open, things she doesn’t want Tom to know. Will the couple survive a week of filming, even as their (and their daughter’s) lives explode?

    I enjoyed the entire series about the Jennings sisters. You can tell that they all love each other, even though they may not agree with each other’s choices. This is a good series by Sheila Norton.
