1) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. Formulaic, patronizing and dull. I´m just glad it was loaned to me, and that I didn´t waste my money, just my time. The last time I read something this poorly written, it was "The Bridges of Madison County". If you liked that level of writing, you´ll love this.¤

2) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. After reading The Notebook, I was excited to pick up another hyped Nicolas Sparks book. But boy oh boy was it such a let-down. A third of the way through I started rolling my eyes. When I was half way though, I found that I didn´t really care about the two characters and how their "relationship" would become. Three quarter through, I was hoping for one of them to die (how horrible was that!?). I just wish it was Theresa who died. She was a creepy stalker who jumped into bed with a practical stranger. And she "forgave" him for what he had done!? She was the one who needed to ask for forgiveness for publishing other people´s private thoughts and looking him up and stalking him.¤

3) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. I admit that I used to be a "movie only" person. But Sparks has changed that! With the exception of "The Notebook", his stories are superior to the movies they´ve turned out. I read this before even knowing there WAS a movie then tried to watch. I had Matthew M. as Garrett, Costener disappointed me. In other words...READ THIS BOOK!!¤

4) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. I love the story because I love the plot of this story. The book is far more bewitching than the movie. If people just being simple and contributed for their lovers, may it will lead to the happiness. Whoever you are, a love loser, a divorced woman, a widower, walk out of your past and be acceptable. Believe God has other plans for you.

Every step in your life will give you much more benifit for your future life, it´s all about treasure, don´t dwell on it. Move on!¤

5) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. (Contains spoilers)

I sobbed with this book, enough to actually throw it across the bed. I felt her pain in the end, and it was all so terrible wrong. I hate the ending with a passion. To hell with the dramatic effect his death brought on... I´d rather be stuck in my tiny bubble of unrealistic fantasies than read that ending thoroughly. It was just a punch in the chest when I read the last letter he wrote to Theresa... to know that he wanted her, loved her, wanted to have children with her and... Oh god! The pain! I feel it!

I am only 16, and have never felt what true love is like, and if when he goes it´ll be this painful, I´m not entirely sure I´d be able to go on, as Garret went on when Catherine died. I would feel empty. That´s if I ever find true love... *smiles*
Maybe... I´m getting melodramatic and absurd about all this, but this book really left me cowering in the bathroom crying in whispers as to not wake up my sleeping mother.

It is unbelievable, the emotions that this book has stirred in me. I feel weak, with hurt, and compassion, and simply curse to Mother Nature for brining up the storm that lead to his death.

I feel so pathetic. My waterworks have turned into pointless sobs. I can´t bring myself to finish the damn book. It´s too painful. You´d almost think that I myself have lost someone... I felt what Theresa felt. I understood how he felt when his wife Catherine died, and like both of them, I feel grief and utter agony. It´ll pass these feelings of mine, but today I can´t sleep.

I think this book deserves in my eyes a happier ending for them both. The book is supposed to teach you about true love once again and how it´s timeless and everlasting. OH BALONEA! It´s a tragedy. An excruciating, heart wrenching tragedy.

........................................................................

Ok so I brought myself to read the ending. Her letter left a huge impact on me. It had truth, yet... all of me is screaming! Screaming at the author, at Theresa, at Garret! I feel like they both deserved each other and that..... OH! The agony!


I recommend this book greatly, because as much as I try to deny it, it does teach you certain lessons. I just have to learn how to cope with what has will one day be taken from me. And...

Ok, just read it. It is truly beautiful.

6) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. The author of the runaway "New York Times" bestseller "The Notebook" pens a tale of self-discovery, renewal, and the courage it takes to love again. When a 36-year-old single mother finds a love letter in a half-buried bottle while jogging along the shores of Cape Cod, she decides to take a dramatic leap that will forever change her life.¤

7) Mass Market Paperback Book Message in a Bottle by Vision. If you thought The Notebook was a tearjerker, get out the hankies, pull up a chair, and get ready to have your heart monkey-wrenched by Nicholas Sparks´s second star-crossed love story, Message in a Bottle. When Theresa Osborne takes a much-needed summer holiday at Cape Cod, she finds a lot more than a break from the hustle and bustle. On an early-morning jog along Cape Cod Bay, she comes across a corked bottle with a scrolled-up message inside that reads, "My Dearest Catherine, I miss you, my darling, as I always do, but today is especially hard because the ocean has been singing to me, and the song is that of our life together..." It bobbles around in the same vein for several more paragraphs and ends with "...am alone on the pier and I do not care what others think as I bow my head and cry and cry and cry. Garret."

Garret may eat quiche, but no bother--before you can say "Look! I found two more letters!" Theresa is hot on his trail and determined to find this mysterious yet sensitive message-in-a-bottle man. She finds him at a sleepy North Carolina port, working on his beloved sailboat, The Happenstance. From there, a romance buds and blossoms into a colorful bouquet of emotional baggage. Theresa has problems with her past--or, more accurately, her past is a problem. She is so scarred from her "I´m a super churchgoing guy now that I´ve run out on my wife" ex-husband that she hasn´t tried to date since her divorce some three or four years before. And who is Catherine? And what´s Garret´s bag, anyway? When Theresa finds out, she plunges to the depths of her soul and uncorks a whopper of a secret about herself, bringing Garret to terms with who he really is.

Message in a Bottle has the earmarks of sentimental tongue-wagging at its finest and should please romantics and cynics alike--it´s sure to bring romantics to their knees, while cynics will be slapping theirs in laughter. --Rebekah Warren¤
