Product Description
When Savannah Lynn Curtis comes into his life, John Tyree knows he is ready to turn over a new leaf. An angry rebel, he had enlisted in the army after high school, not knowing what else to do. Then, during a furlough, he meets the girl of his dreams. Savannah Lynn Curtis is attending college in North Carolina, working for Habitat for Humanity, and totally unprepared for the passionate attraction she feels for John Tyree. The attraction is mutual and quickly grows into the kind of love that leaves Savannah vowing to wait for John while he finishes his tour of duty, and John realizing that he's ready to settle down with the young woman who has captured his heart. Neither can foresee that 9/11 is about to change the world and will force John to risk every hope and dream that he's ever had. Like so many proud men and women, John must choose between love and country. And like all those left behind, Savannah must decide to wait or move on. How do we choose wisely? How can we face loss-without giving up on love? Now, when he finally returns to North Carolina, John will discover that loving Savannah will force him to make the hardest decision of his life. An extraordinary, moving story, Dear John explores the complexities of love -- how it survives time and heartbreak, and how it transforms us forever.

This book is as good as all of Nick Sparks' works. It doesn't have a conventional ending (which isn't a surprise with Sparks) and leaves you guessing. Most if not all of his books are the ones I can never put down, this is another great one and highlights tough decisions people have to make and leave you wondering what could have happened if...
Dear John by Nicholas Sparks December 19, 2008
C. Rollins (SC)
From my prospective, I give this book a 10. It was absolutely beautiful, powerful, and moving. It was full of desire, love, heart-break, regret, and so many emotions that I just couldn't put this book down. I read it in no time because I had to read about Savannah and John's happy ending, but when it didn't happened, I was so lost for words. I couldn't get the ending out of my head for atleast a week and I couldn't get over the love that John carried for Savannah. So much, that he left her so she would be happy with Tim. This book will definitely teach you a thing or two about love and the true meaning. Nicholas Spark did a fine job on writing this love-story and as of now, is my favorite author. I definitely recommend reading Dear John!

This was my first book I have read from Sparks. And I loved it! I am now looking for all of them at used book stores!

Great character building. Story pulls the reader in throughout the entire book. Best book I've read in a long time.
Typical but good November 20, 2008
Ann-Maria Fleming
Overall, I enjoyed this book. It was a quick, easy read. It kind of had a boring start but definitely picked up a bit later. I loved John and Savannah as a couple but I knew once he went back to Germany, it would be a struggle for them to stay together. I will say I never truly got a grasp of the love between John and Savannah in the end. It was so wishy washy. I understand their logic but it still didn't fit right. The ending was typical but I still found it to be an average/above average book.
