Aneta’s review:
I start read this book by chance. Just I was in the library and it was just one book by Nikolas Sparks. It was very good choice. Seriously at the beginning story was little boring. Some boring village in which nothing happen and some couple who not special know each other. She is already pregnant and they plan to get marriage. Here the child  strengthen their relationship. So they plan get marriage. Everything is very difficult in the small village because “What people would say…”. Child without marriage so Lexie can’t tell anyone about child. So like I wrote earlier in the beginning story is boring and was little disappointed. Sometimes I didn’t know who irritate me more Lexie or Jeremy but suddenly something changed. I started reading it in one breath. Their child could die. I wanted to know faster what will happen with child. Ending was startling ! I couldn’t believe that Lexie died.  Shocking, touching story. Good job Sparks. Wow…
I think that I will come back to this story in the future.

Afzaal’s review:

Well where to start, I got back in to novel reading because my beautiful girlfriend inspired me :) I started reading novels again and this was the first one I read in years, of course knowing that my girlfriend read it before I knew it would be a great read. So yes, beautiful story... Lexie and Jeremy a beautiful couple that love each other so much, Jeremy left his whole life behind and decided to move to a small town in California just because he loved Lexie so much and she was pregnant. The story is about them planning their wedding and how Jeremy is trying to adjust to his new life. The book itself was little boring in beginning, but you get little twists and turns that keep you reading it. You see a lot of different emotions in this book when two people are in love, the sacrifice they make, the jealousy that comes in between, the cute things in relationship, the reality of knowing that you are not alone you are sharing your life with someone now and this person is part of you and your decision making also. All these things makes this book a worth read, of course not to mention.. At the end of this book I could not stop reading it.. I would say the last 200 pages or soo.. It was like a movie in cinema where you are at the edge of your seat.. I was literally at the edge of my bed.. just could not take my eyes of it! But of course it had a very sad ending.. Lexie dying while giving birth was just heartbroken.. It shook me to pieces.. and made me realize how it felt losing someone you love.. I won't be ashamed to admit but it brought tears to my eyes.. A great read, and amazing work my Nicholas sparks.
