Publisher's summary

Divorced and disillusioned about relationships, Theresa Osborne is jogging when she finds a bottle on the beach. Inside is a letter of love and longing to "Catherine", signed simply "Garrett". Challenged by the mystery and pulled by emotions she doesn't fully understand, Theresa begins a search for this man that will change her life. What happens to her is unexpected, perhaps miraculous - an encounter that embraces all our hopes for finding someone special, for having a love that is timeless and everlasting.

Nicholas Sparks exquisitely chronicles the human heart. In his first best-selling novel, The Notebook, he created a testament to romantic love that touched listeners around the world. Now in this New York Times best-seller, he renews our faith in destiny, in the ability of lovers to find each other no matter where, no matter when.

Applying to your life

I think we can apply this book to our own life when bad things happen. I can definitely relate and it helped me understand my own fathers feelings when we lost my mom. Recommend forsure!

the story was good

I felt the performer displayed very little emotion and it felt slow. like I wanted her to have some happiness or sadness, very monotone.
