I Buy His Book Every Year
Hey guys and welcome to a brand new blog post. I thought I would pop on here and share a little late-night ramble. The first thing I want to ask is, can someone explain why it’s MONDAY AGAIN. I’m grateful to see another day but it’s time to grind again! But that’s neither here nor there, let’s get to the most important part of this post shall we?
If you have been reading my blog for some time now, then you know how much I LOVE Nicholas Sparks. He is my absolute favorite author and I have loved everything he has written since The Notebook (which is still my favorite movie to date). So when I heard he was releasing a new book, I KNEW I had to snatch it up.
Anytime I start to look for a new book, I always start at the Library, small business book stores, and second-hand shops. Grant it, its a bit harder to find new releases this way but it’s totally worth the try (especially in this economy).
Here is a little photo of me checking out books that I did not need to purchase lol! There were so many good books in the store that I don’t even know where to start! Thankfully, I was able to find the ONE book that I needed!
Here is an excerpt from the NEW Nicholas Sparks book, Dreamland:
“Colby Mills once felt destined for a musical career, until tragedy grounded his aspirations. Now the head of a small family farm in North Carolina, he spontaneously takes a gig playing at a bar in St. Pete’s Beach, Florida, seeking a rare break from his duties at home.
But when he meets Morgan Lee, his world is turned upside-down, making him wonder if the responsibilities he has shouldered need dictate his life forever. The daughter of affluent Chicago doctors, Morgan has graduated from a prestigious college music program with the ambition to move to Nashville and become a star. Romantically and musically, she and Colby complete each other in a way that neither has ever known.
While they are falling headlong in love, Beverly is on a heart-pounding journey of another kind. Fleeing an abusive husband with her six-year-old son, she is trying to piece together a life for them in a small town far off the beaten track. With money running out and danger seemingly around every corner, she makes a desperate decision that will rewrite everything she knows to be true.
In the course of a single unforgettable week, two young people will navigate the exhilarating heights and heartbreak of first love. Hundreds of miles away, Beverly will put her love for her young son to the test. And fate will draw all three people together in a web of life-altering connections . . . forcing each to wonder whether the dream of a better life can ever survive the weight of the past”.
I am super excited to start reading this book. I am a pretty fast reader so hopefully, I can take my time with this one. I will give an update on what I think about it after a few chapters. Anyways, that’s all for now! I will see you guys in the next blog post. PS: Share any books you have been reading in the comments below.
Always Living and Forever Learning,
