Just like his bestsellers: The Notebook, A Walk To Remember, Message In A Bottle, The Rescue, The Guardian..his latest novel, At First Sight, a sequel to True Believer, is character-driven, full of emotions and yes…ended with an expected “unexpected death” climax. I’m a sucker with happy endings but I just love how Sparks turn sad endings to good conclusions from which one can extract realistic and life realizations.

“How well do we really know the ones we love?” That’s the question the story portrays..it includes trust, betrayal, acceptance, endings that bring new beginnings, tragedies that lead to encompassing joy, epitome of everlasting love. I so actually can relate as this story relates how newlyweds undergo tests of marriage and parenthood with the joys and difficulties that they have to endure. No..I’m not doing a review here as I’m not good at making one. Just read them na lang. I’m just fascinated that I got to finish two stories simultaneously of my favorite novelist. Thanks to Powerbooks’ sale promo last month. So there…just to let you know that I’m doing other things than digiscrapping, for those of you who’ve been wondering about my “so much” fascination with it.
