A beautiful love story with reminders to really cherish the things that matter. I love how he points out the small moments that make life beautiful, that taking the risk of trust and love is always worth it.

I cant remember how or why i came about this book the first time i read it, which was many many years ago. I recently reread it, and it still haunts me.
This is quite a chicky book, I am not one to read chic lit, but this book possessed me, again, this is a no spoiler review, and its hard to say much without revealing the story. But this book destroyed me when it ended. I cried on a level not seen since Marley and Me. I cried for Suzanne, I cried for Nicholas, I cried for every character. I highly recommend it, if your thinking of passing it over because its a chic lit, please dont, yes its a relationship story, but its a life lesson. Its sheer brilliance. Nothing more, nothing less.
This book. Oh, I was torn in pieces by this book in ways that I did not expect to be, especially since I was so used to reading James Patterson’s suspense and detective novels! I never imagined that he could write something so poignant, so beautiful. So breathtaking. So heart-wrenching. As a young mother with a one-year-old son at the time when I read this book, I think I sobbed uncontrollably for quite some time because I was so affected by the book. Even thinking back to the time I read it touches the deepest parts of my heart.
I remember reading this book in the span of several hours, staying up late into the middle of the night as the pages just quickly unfolded with the amazing love of Suzanne for her baby Nicholas, the story of Suzanne’s love for her husband Matt, and the love of the new parents for their baby son. And of course, with the story of the newfound love between Katie and Matt and how profoundly Katie was affected by reading this diary. It’s a novel that is at its very heart layers and layers of a love story, or more accurately, represents a circle of unbroken and unequivocal love between all the characters that is best understood only by reading the book.
Again, as a mother, it was a hard read, but such a loving read to “hear” Suzanne’s voice in the diary and know that above all else she wanted to be known as a mother and for her son to remember her that way. It touched such a cord with me and if nothing else, that is what I want to be remembered for: a mother who proudly and fiercely loves her children since anything else pales in comparison, so I felt Suzanne’s desire to write and keep writing to her son long after the story ended.
But the book is more than about Suzanne’s love for her baby, it was her story to Katie as well, which was so intense, but so loving. There are twists in the book, but it wouldn’t be a Patterson book without them, and I certainly will not spoil them! All I will say is this is one of the most emotionally heavy books that I have read. I cannot say how beautiful and touching Suzanne’s Diary for Nicholas is enough. Highly recommended even for non-readers of James Patterson as he certainly shines here!
