The Notebook
Nicholas Sparks

Though I rarely feel this way, this is one case where I preferred the movie to the book. Still, not a waste of time.

Publishers description: "A man picks up a very special notebook and begins reading to his beloved wife, his voice recalling the story of their poignant and bittersweet journey to happiness. . . so begins The Notebook, a touching novel that is a dual tale of love lost and found, and of a couple's gentle efforts to retrieve the most cherished moments of their lives. The Notebook is irrepressibly romantic and has become a classic. "
