Dear John


So many girls have been going crazy about the new movie Dear John. I thought it looked really good, but whenever a movie is coming out about a book, I have to read the book before I see the movie. Same went with Dear John. I went to Target, got the book, and I was excited to read it. The book starts off as a cute love story, just like all of Nicholas Sparks books like the Notebook or A Walk To Remember. This book was so good until about half way through when the two main characters didn't end up together. The book took so many unexpected turns that it almost got annoying. I hate books when they turn out way different than your original thoughts. It also made me mad how the trailer looks all happy and dandy, when the book is nothing like that. Honestly, it is a tragic love story and the movie might disappoint many.
