Book 7- The Guardian

Image
   The Guardian by Nicholas Sparks      This 494-page novel was started on November 22, 2024, and finished on November 24, 2024. My niece Shiloh chose it.           I am completely convinced that my nieces love to see me suffer. As young as Shiloh is, she knew what she was doing when she chose this book. This was the quickest I have ever read a novel. I was absolutely taken aback by the character of Richard, and at first, I liked him. Being 'whooed' like Juie, I could understand her admiration. But I absolutely adored Mike. Between him and Richard, Mike was meant to win.           The book played like a movie in my head and I had so many emotions. The person you thought was the guardian turns out a surprise in the end and it left me heartbroken. I cried A LOT. Having taken almost two weeks to emotionally recover, proves that Sparks knows how to pull at your heartstrings. I gave it 5-stars.   ...
