Is there a definite definition for the word “love”? I don’t think so. Nicholas Sparks, who had been writing romances, brought a typical love story into a deeper journey. Allie came from a wealthy family yet Noah was just a poor guy that lived with his dad. They had an unforgettable love affair during a lovely summer when they were young and wild even though they came from two distinct worlds. Allie had to leave New Bern after summer ends and her parents disagreed their relationship. Years later, they met again. Although Allie was engaged and they seemed to become strangers, the summer they spent with their dynamic and passionate love had never fade away in each other’s mind. Allie determined to chose who she really love with her heart. As they grew older, Allie was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Noah didn’t gave up on her and kept reading their story of love even though she could probably kept none of the memories. Even she did, miracles never lasted for a long time. Here’s where I personally think true love was actually shown. When she wasn’t young and beautiful anymore, he still loved her with his soul and his life. I believe true love doesn’t necessarily have to be hot and memorable, but it should be timeless and unconditional.

Every so often a love story so captures our hearts that it becomes more than a story it becomes an experience to remember forever. "The Notebook" is such a book.

This is a very touching book. It is mainly talking about the love story of Noah and Allie. Allie was born in a very wealthy family. She had a bright, well planed future waiting for her. Going to a good college, marry a rich man, and getting a good life that their parents want, and she was following the plan like this is the life she wants, until one day, she met Noah in an amusement part. At the first glance, Noah fell in love with her. Soon they all fell in love. When everything is perfect, their parents found out about their relationship and disagree about it. Soon they broke apart. After a year that Allie left the town, Allie found a new rich guy while Noah was serving the army. When they finally met again, they fell in love once again, and this time, they decided that no one can stop them. This book led me into tears at last, because I never knew that love can be that strong, and also because that shows me they were both in each others mind even though so many years had past. But this book is also sad, although after all, they married, but Allie got amnesia. Everything Noah had done will vanish in every second. But in conclusion, this is one of the best book and movie ever.
