It's no secret I am not a fan of Nicholas Sparks. I feel he is over rated and writes the same story with the same characters, just different names. This book was no different; we have the bad ex-husband/cop that mistreats his wife (cliché), the apparition or ghost that helps the wanderer along his/her path (both characters overly used in Sparks books) and even the location, the small town that helps the downtrodden turn their lives around by falling in love with the small town girl (or boy, depending on the book). Oh, and don't forget, there is always a death. Always. Sparks books annoy me as they are redundant and lack originality.
Karen and I had this conversation many times and she would laugh with me and even would agree, but she still enjoyed the stories. So, I read this one for her because I do love her and will sacrifice my time and enjoyment by reading this book for her. That's what friends do for each other.
