Dear John

Book, 2006 by Nicholas Sparks

An angry rebel, John dropped out of school and enlisted in the Army, not knowing what else to do with his life--until he meets the girl of his dreams, Savannah. Their mutual attraction quickly grows into the kind of love that leaves Savannah waiting for John to finish his tour of duty, and John wanting to settle down with the woman who captured his heart. But 9/11 changes everything. John feels it is his duty to re-enlist. And sadly, the long separation finds Savannah falling in love with someone else. "Dear John," the letter read...and with those two words, a heart was broken and two lives were changed forever. Returning home, John must come to grips with the fact that Savannah, now married, is still his true love--and face the hardest decision of his life.

Movie, 2010 directed by Lasse Hallström

Features: Channing Tatum, Amanda Seyfried

Tagline: Is Duty enough reason to live a lie?

The movie is due for release on February 5, 2010. Four of his other novels have been adapted for film: Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember, The Notebook, and Nights in Rodanthe.

Are you a Nicholas Sparks fan? Have you read any of his books or seen the movie adaptations? Does this one sound good to you?

I'm not crazy about romances, but I do really like Channing Tatum, so I might see this one.
