Coming Soon a Feature Presentation

Do you believe in love at first sight? Well no many people do but in my favorite book, “The Notebook” by Nicholas Sparks”, this book can prove to a person more than once that love at first sight can exist.

The first time that I ever saw this book I thought to myself do I want to read this or do I not want to read this book. I had already watched the movie and loved it, and I have always been told that the book is better than the movie, so I thought to myself and said want don’t I just the chance to do something that I do not usually do and sit down and read this book. Now I am the kind of person that if I am not into something within the first few pages then I will never pick it up again, well the minute that I started reading this book I was so into it.
The thing about the book that drew me to it more and more was that it was based in NC, and to me that meant a lot knowing that the beaches that I walk on when I go to the beach have been wrote about and have made it known across the country. The book showed that NC is a beautiful place to enjoy over the summer, but what it also demonstrated was that you can find love on summer vacation.

“The Notebook,” is a book about two young adults, Noah Calhoun and Allison Hamilton, who fall in love over the summer. It all starts when Noah sees Allie at the fair and he told his friend Fen that that girl was the beautiful girl that he had ever seen. Fen told him that he did not have a chance and she was a rich girl and was only here in Seabrook for the summer. Well over time Noah and Allie fall in love and at the end of the summer are forced to go different ways. Over the years Noah write but does not get a reply so he decides to enlist in WWII with Fin who gets killed. After war Noah moves back and restores the Windsor Plantation. Allie is getting fitted in her wedding dress to Lon Hammond who is a rich lawyer, when she sees a picture of Noah and falls back in love with him. From that point on she found Noah they were inseparable once again.
To me this is just a story of proof that love can truly happen at first sight. You may not spend a life together right away but if you really love someone then time does not matter and it can wait a life time.
