In "The Notebook" by Nicholas Sparks lots of events occurred in the time frame of the 1940's Noah Calhoun and Allie Nelson live in Raleigh, North Carolina . Noah is a middle class country boy who fends for himself along with his father living on a dirt and gravel country road. Where as Allie Nelson's family is a very wealthy and classy family from the northeast. Normally Allie wouldn’t fall for a country southerner like Noah but the summer of 1943 changed everything for the two very different people. It changed them partially in a good way. And partially in a bad way.
After I was finished reading this book I decided that I loved it. Mostly because of the way that the author plotted this story together was amazing. Each time one thrilling moment ended another one was just beginning. In the summer Noah and Allie fell in love they were positive that their lives were changed because of that and because of each other. The thing that crumbled the relationship was when Allie brought Noah home to meet her parents. Allie's mother and father greatly disapproved of him and wanted him out of her life completely. I don't think that's fair of them to interfere with her love life because it's her choice to date him and if that's what she wants to do then she should. From that moment when her parents had a yelling rage of his insincerity and lack of wealth is when their love life went downhill. Reasons like those are reasons why I love this book so much.
Just like every regular day in Noah Calhoun's life he goes out to his porch to sip on sweet tea and looks at the lake right by his house. Little did he know that his "regular" day turned into a life changing experience. That experience was when Allie decided to come and visit him . It has been 14 years since they last saw each other and Noah was taken by surprise at her sudden presence. Once the previous couple caught up and started talking again they rekindled their friendship. Things like those are why I loved this book because of it's suspense.
Exciting moments like the ones that I described are very interesting because they keep you attached to the book. All books should be like that. They should make you want to never close it. For me all of those reasons occurred. The Notebook is a very inspiring book. The wisdom and courage it brings to readers is great. I loved this book and I would read it again in a heartbeat. Nicholas Sparks did an amazing job at portraying a story of sincerity and love. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes this particular author or this type of genre.
