True+Believer+-+Review

 Although I did enjoy reading //True Believer//, I did not enjoy it as much as some of the other books by Nicholas Sparks that I’ve read. I think it’s because there wasn’t as much excitement or intrigue. Also, it was pretty predictable; in many of Sparks’ books, the reason they are so good is that you never know what will happen. I had predicted this ending after reading half of the book. I also think that Sparks may have put too much unnecessary information into the book. Sometimes, it got a little long and I found myself thinking that what I was reading was not particularly pertinent to the rest of the story.

I did like the combination of stories, between the love story and the mystery. Also, I thought that the characters were interesting and very well developed. I found myself thinking what I would do if I were in a certain situation, which indicates a good book because it means that I was that much into it.  There were parts that I really wanted to keep reading to see what would happen next, which was also a good thing.

Overall, I would rate this book a seven out of ten. I think that it was a little long and drawn out on details sometimes, but I also really like the story and the ending. I think that anyone who likes love stories and mysteries would enjoy this book, especially those fans of Nicholas Sparks.
