Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Ladies and gentlemen, start your tear ducts…Sparks doesn’t stray too far from his bittersweet, lost-love formula…but you’ll cry in spite [of] yourself.” People
“A page-turner.” Connecticut Post
“Two lonely people come together and find the kind of deep, committed love that has been absent from their lives for too long…Nicholas Sparks has done it again.” Forth Worth Star-Telegram
“In the best tradition of Robert James Waller…Nicholas Sparks ventures into a genre ruled, almost exclusively, by women. Nights in Rodanthe will be popular with lovers of tasteful romantic fiction.” Martha’s Vineyard Times
“The intense yet short-lived romance in Nicholas Sparks’ novel, Nights in Rodanthe…offers a story that is…passionate and memorable…Sparks’ smooth, sensitive writing and simple story line that doesn’t end with every wish coming true make this a novel that can hold its own.” Associated Press
“Sparks…is back at it with his latest mix of love story and pathos. He doesn’t disappoint…Sparks has a very solid fan base, and they will be clamoring for his latest.” Booklist
“JoBeth Williams’ tender narration captures the introspection and sadness of Adrienne’s tale, as well as its passion. Her detached portrayal of Paul and Adrienne’s lives before they find each other conveys all the flatness of their existence, despite the many events filling their days…Soft piano interludes elegantly separate chapters and polish the finished work.” AudioFile
