An angry rebel, John dropped out of school and enlisted in the Army, not knowing what else to do with his life--until he meets the girl of his dreams, Savannah. 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 captured his heart. But 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. "Dear John," the letter read...and with those two words, a heart was broken and two lives were changed forever. Returning home, John must come to grips with the fact that Savannah, now married, is still his true love--and face the hardest decision of his life.

A Real Good Read March 20, 2010
Aytch (UK)
I was absorbed by this book from the first page, the relationships portrayed throughout are so real, especially the father and son. I was unsure what to expect as I had never read any of this authors books - only watched The Notebook. I did need a hankie once or twice, and I wanted to get in the book and give one of the characters a bit of a talking to! I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a quiet thoughtful read.
crazy love story you should read!! March 19, 2010

Book Review
In the book, Dear John it starts out by telling you about John's life as a child, how he and his father lived together after his mother had left them when he was very little. His father was a little different than most people, he did everything at the same time everyday for his entire life. Every morning he would get up and make John and himself eggs and bacon. John's father didn't have much money so they would use what they got. For example: When their fridge broke they had to get the only one they could afford, a lime green one, that John always says just never looks like it belongs.
John and his father only could talk about one thing..... coins. His dad knew everything about coins. They would look for new coins every where they went, but the only picture of them when they got a coin was in Wisconsin, where they found the buffalo coin.
When John got out of high school, not knowing what else to do, He enrolled himself into the Army. Two years later on leave he came home and meet a girl named Savannah. He thinks she is amazing, and the love of his life. The only thing is they fall in love shortly before 9/11 which changes their life forever. But will she still love him when he is overseas??
I thought the book was good up until the end. There was too much going on. With his life and staying in the war and trying to keep in touch with Savannah and his father in the hospital it was all too much. It just piled up on each other and it got to be very confusing. I didn't like all the little war side things they put in, like, when his friend was shot in the hand.
I would give this book a 7-10. Because it was good it made me laugh and it made me cry. Like when they were on there first date and Savannah laughed at the name of the restaurant "The Shrimp Shack." But it got confusing when they piled event after event at the same time, it was just too much! I have never read a book like this before. I think all girls should read it (well if you like what you heard about it). But over all I thought it was a good book.

 WOW March 15, 2010
reads to much
i found the book exicting, the end was nothing i imagined, this is not a regular love story the author has gave the story depth and emotion. you find a new meaning for love in this book. you felt anger, happiness, and most of all sadness. the book gave me a something to think about.
 Worst book ever March 14, 2010
Joel Montes de Oca (Miami, FL)
I picked up this book after a friend of mine asked me to read it with her. I agreed and read it. I must say this is one of the worse books I have ever read. Nothing ever happens in the story and it was just a huge waste of time.

Another terrific Nicholas Sparks book. Tear Jerker, but really pulls you in while reading. Hard to put down.
