Latest Read: Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas

child sleeping I just finished reading James Paterson's book, Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas. In a nutshell, without telling you the entire story, Katie's boyfriend unexpectedly dumps her. He leaves behind a diary written by his former wife, Suzanne, for their son Nicholas. Katie proceeds to read the diary, along with its loving and painful details.

If you're looking for a quick beach read, this book would do the trick. I managed to read it in only 3 fairly short sittings.

On a scale of 1 to 5 (one being low, 5 being high), I rated this book a 3. The other book club members gave it an average rating of 3.5.

The reason I didn't score it higher, was because it was very predictable for me--I usually like more of a surprise ending. Plus, the Suzanne character in this book made some decisions that I just could not relate to.

However, if you're looking for another story about how precious life is, this one fits that bill. Warning: grab a box of tissues before reading!

I cried my eyes out reading this book!! There was also a movie made from this..I believe Christina Applegate played in it.

I read this book and seen the movie too. I love this book and Sam's Letters to Jennifer. Both of these books are a wonderful read. I also plan on reading... Sundays at Tiffany's. I haven't read any of his other books yet, but heard that that their great.
