Many women are looking forward to the release of the movie "The Lucky One" written by Nicholas Sparks. Nicholas Sparks is famous for his romantic books turned movie. His other famous books are "The Notebook", "Dear John," "Walk to Remember" and the "The Last Song". I realized that all these movies have similar plots. It includes a handsome man who is drawn to a beautiful woman. But a conflict arises between the couple whether its a disease or disapproval from family. But in the end they end up together and live happily ever after. I am excited to see the new movie and see if it fits into his usual plot line. They do make great romantic stories.

Dear Elizabeth,
I am interested with your post, "The Lucky One," because I have read that book in my freshman year. I was curious what others think about books that I have read before.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is, "Many women are looking forward to the release of the movie ,The Lucky One, written by Nicholas Sparks." I think this is funny but true because it’s more common that women are interested in romantic movies.
Another sentence that I agree was "Nicholas Sparks is famous for his romantic books turned movie." This stood out for me because just like his books, the movies turn out to be extremely good. I like how most of the movies includes a lot of plots from the book. Many can agree that the movie, The Notebook, is one of the most romantic movies of all time.

I do extremely agree with you that Nicholas Sparks’s books/ movies have the same plots. One reason I say this is because most of the books includes two characters who falls in love at first sight. Another reason I agree with you is because there’s usually at least conflict that makes love impossible. I believe Sparks is a talented author, who is able to keep a reader in suspense.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because it seems like we have the same opinion about Nicholas Sparks movies/books. I enjoy comparing mine opinion with others to see if students my age have the same idea as mine.
