Same ol same ol

Years ago I read one of his books and it was very good. Well, not so this one. Don't waste your monies on it. His story was nothing exceptional - like so many books. I got tired of reading about this little chid and his problems talking, Sweetie, with his mom. A love interest comes into the picture and it goes down from there. Nothing special here.

Hard to put down...you want to see what happens next!

Nicholas Sparks is one of my favorite authors. He knows how to tell a story. This book was educational for me as well. Learning about children growing up with autism not only the challenges they face but how to interact with them socially. Also, all the struggles the mother goes through. I loved this book! It made me cry, laugh, there was a love story intertwined, personal struggles, educational.

An emotionally charged, memorable read.....

The Rescue by Nicholas Sparks

Taylor is a volunteer fireman in a small North Carolina town. Denise is a single Mom to a learning disabled child. Her whole world revolves around her son Kyle. She meets Taylor when she is in an auto accident leaving her injured and Kyle missing. Taylor is part of the rescue team in search of Kyle. Soon their lives will connect in many ways, and life may never be the same.

A fantastic emotionally charged story with likable characters and believable plot. Denise is struggling but knows what she would like in life. Taylor has inner demons to confront if he wants to live a happy life. Kyle is extremely lovable, I wanted to see him happy in every way possible.

Overall I found The Rescue very enjoyable. It has all the feels, a truly memorable read. I highly recommend to Nicholas Sparks fans and those who love a great heartfelt read.
