4 Some of my favorite quotations from him are : We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has only happened once, and that's why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment of it. (The Notebook) The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected. (The Notebook)I smile slightly, looking toward the sky, knowing theres one thing I still havent told you : I now believe, by the way, that miracles can happen. (A Walk to Remember) Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it. (A Walk to Remember) Sparks always gives the readers beautiful lines or paragraphs in each of his novels.

9 Dear John is a novel by American writer Nicholas Sparks,released in The three-part novel, set from 2000–2006, follows the romance of a soldier in his experience of life love, loss and sacrifice. My first novel by Nicholas Sparks that I loved at first sight. Since I have read it I fell in love with his novels… Plot An angry rebel, John Tyree dropped out of school and enlisted in the Army, not knowing what else to do with his lifeuntil he meets the girl of his dreams, Savannah. While on leave, staying with his father in his hometown, John spends his days at the beach. In a selfless act to save young woman possessions from the ocean, John meets Savannah Curtis. Their mutual attraction quickly grows into the kind of love that leaves Savannah waiting for John to finish his tour of duty, and John wanting to settle down with the woman who has captured his heart. Just as John is about to end his tour, 9/11 changes everything. John feels it is his duty to re-enlist. And sadly, the long separation finds Savannah falling in love with someone else.Savannah sends a last letter to John by which he is completely heartbroken and that letter changes both the lives forever. Returning home on leave because of his fathers illness, John recalls the summer that he fell in love. After his fathers death John takes a trip to Savannahs hometown and must come to grips with the fact that Savannah, now married, is still his true love. Together Savannah and John face their own struggles of acceptance of what their lives have become all while facing the hardest decisions of their lives, learning to let go of the ones they love.

10 Its love at first sight for John (Tatum) and college student Savannah (Mamma Mias Amanda Seyfried) when they meet by chance on the beach during a summer holiday. But their romance is threatened as the holiday ends, Savannah has to go back to college and John must return to life in the army and all that his duty entails. Brought together by love, will fate tear them apart?

11 Dear John is written in typical Nicholas Sparks mode. The story begins by building background on the main character, John Tyree, a rebel who recently graduated from high school and whos doing as all of his buddies doliving off his father. Realizing his life is going nowhere and wanting to change that, John signs up to join the Army. He becomes an infantryman and gets to do several tours in Kosovo. When John gets leave, he returns to his hometown to visit with his father. He also spends time at the beach surfingwhich is where Sparks introduces Savannah Lynn Curtis.

12 Savannah is a rather spunky girl who does things her own way. Shes not into the typical college pastimes of drinking, partying, and sex. Instead, shes dedicated herself to helping others. Savannah is majoring in Special Education at the University of North Carolina, and shes spending her summer coordinating a group from her college to build homes for Habitat for Humanity in Johns hometown. Savannah and John meet on the beach one afternoon when her purse accidentally gets knocked into the ocean and John retrieves it.

13 The story blossoms over the next two weeks of Johns leave. He attends church with Savannah, takes her out to dinner, and begins to fall in love with her. Savannah also falls in love with John. The story begins to deepen as John must return to his base in Germany and complete his service with the Army. Savannah and John agree to meet during his next leave, one year later, and to remain close while keeping their love for each other strong. They do the typical long-distance things: writing, ing, and calling each other often. Then John visits Savannah on his second leave, and they rekindle their love. They spend time with her parents and then at her college dorm. They seem to have grown apart over the last year, but things fall back into place the more theyre together.

14 After this visit, things between them seem to be less intense, and they begin to drift apart. The story doesnt end here, though and the two struggle separately over the next five years before they meet again. Dear John is especially well written. Nicholas Sparks does a great job of building his characters, drawing the reader into the story to the point of not being able to put the book down. The different passions of the two main characters that make them so different also make them perfect for each other. However, as fate will have it, the story doesnt end as you might expect. This is a fabulous book, and I highly recommend it.

15 The two lovers meet while John is on army leave and Savannah is on spring break, but when they have to return to their lives, their separation proves to be harder than they imagined. Naturally, Savannah sends letters to her army love, all beginning with "Dear John."
