Description
Travis Parker has everything a man could want: a good job, loyal friends, even a waterfront
home in small-town North Carolina. In full pursuit of the good life -- boating, swimming, and
regular barbecues with his good-natured buddies -- he holds the vague conviction that a serious
relationship with a woman would only cramp his style. That is, until Gabby Holland moves in
next door. Despite his attempts to be neighborly, the appealing redhead seems to have a chip
on her shoulder about him...and the presence of her longtime boyfriend doesn't help. Despite
himself, Travis can't stop trying to ingratiate himself with his new neighbor, and his persistent
efforts lead them both to the doorstep of a journey that neither could have foreseen. Spanning
the eventful years of young love, marriage and family, The Choice ultimately confronts us with
the most heartwrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?
Insightful reviews
Laura Cashavelly: Mr. Sparks, All my life I believed in order for a wonderful marriage all you
needed was true love. And now, knowing that for a relationship to work it needs much more
then love, reading your books is honestly quite pathetic and sad. All your books are the same,
have you ever thought about writing a book that doesn't involve two people falling in love over
the course of twenty-four hours?
Nikki De Los Santos: Pulled at my heart strings and ended up crying for about 5 mintues at the
end. His writting has a way of getting in your head and you can imagine yourself in the situation.
What would you do......
Julianne: As a medical professional, I was a bit disturbed by the end to this story. The story
Gabby told of a person unresponsive for decades is much more true to life than what happened
at the end of this story. Plus, I was shocked Sparks didn't kill her off--that seemed much more in
line with his novels. But I would have been mad about that, too. I guess you just couldn't win
with me on this one!
Because Sparks has such a huge following, my concern is that people will read this book and
use it to hold out hope that their loved one will do exactly what Gabby did in this book, and this
is FICTION! I don't want to say Sparks is being irresponsible, but people spend a lot more time
absorbing fiction and subconsciously applying it to their lives than they do medical research. So
for many, this novel is the only interaction with brain injury they've had.
Oh, and yet another Sparks story where a woman is practically engaged and then falls in love
with another man. Please, can we stop making women look like we can't make the right
decision the first time around?!
Elise: I may still preface this overview by way of announcing that the alternative used to be a
very considerate Christmas present from my little brother, Darren. i am completely satisfied I
learn it, as i have been interested in the Nicholas Sparks following (at least between a certain,
um, demographic). Sparks' writing type can also be clear, it really is an absurdly quickly read,
and i would be mendacity if I claimed the storyline did not sometimes depart me a section
verklempt.That, however, is the place my compliment for the alternative ends. First, the
characters during this booklet have been ridiculous. often I rail opposed to the media's
unrealistic portrayal of women, however the male protagonist during this novel used to be really
past the pale. This guy had no longer ONE personality flaw (unless blind, unadulterated
devotion to the lady he worships counts). different issues? Love magically treatments what
smooth drugs can't, cheeeeesy cheeeeeeeesy dialogue, and that i sought after the feminine
PROTAGONIST TO DIE. Seriously. There both has to be whatever extraordinarily improper with
me and my empathy skills, or there's something incorrect with this book. i am sorry, Nicholas
Sparks fans. I do take pleasure in a great fluff-filled love story, and i am an enormous fan of
specific sorts of delusion (hooray, Harry Potter). This was once simply too much. perhaps the
alternative could make a greater screenplay; I completely loved the cinematic Notebook, after
all.
Timothy Springer: numerous humans had warned me. "Oh, you are analyzing a Nicholas
Sparks book," that they had asked. "You're going to cry." It appeared the unanimous
assumption to his books.Obviously, like many people, I had loved the motion picture of "The
Notebook" and heard quite a few life-altering tales concerning the novel. by no means feeling
pressured to learn the resource of that adaptation, I picked up one other of Nicholas Sparks'
novels ("The Choice" being at present up at the manhattan instances Bestseller list). It
additionally helped that the majority of the folks i would spoken with approximately this novel
had but to learn it. The again of the paperback indicated a clean new story, filled with romance
and intrigue. A neighbor's come upon ends up in the opportunity of love.How blind i really was
once by means of it all. This booklet is startlingly humorous and will get you correct within the
locations of your middle that desire it most. i may slightly placed it down and located myself
bonding with the characters regardless of the minute exposition and brief storyline. I felt I knew
Travis and his sister Stephanie and will thoroughly empathize with how neurotic and loopy
Gabby was. I enjoyed those characters so much, i did not comprehend why time needed to leap
10 years later for the second one a part of the book.I will not smash it all, yet will say that "The
Choice" is an expansive and gripping novel of affection in any respect costs. It teaches you to
beat your fears and allow cross of what "may happen" for the sincere event of what's
happening.This used to be my first Nicholas Sparks ebook and that i will ultimately learn them
all. I now simply need to wipe the tears from my eyes to get to the bookstore! This was once
such an awesome read!
Célia Loureiro: This needs to be the tenth Nicholas Sparks publication that I read, after many
years break. The final one have been “Dear John”, and that i hated it to the purpose that I by
no means suggestion I’d learn one ebook from this guy again. To be clear: he’s nonetheless
the same. to be able to understand his “formula”, combine up those ingredients:- Many
dialogues (to make it lighter) with effortless and random jokes;- Really cool and attractive man
with little holes on his chicks who enjoys his beer;- Pseudo-independent and powerful girl who
beverages nutrition coke;- Common dates – dinners, barbecues – with not anything
spontaneous on their arrangement, the place they talk about spontaneity after which come to a
decision whilst and at time will they exit for a ship ride/etc.;- Conservative kisses in spite of
everything of that first date – shall I kiss her, shall I not?- A widow;- A desease;- An accident;- A
dog;- A bizarre reference to an animal that not anyone could ever examine – like Noah (The
Wedding) and the swan, and now Travis and a pigeon;- A advanced ethical hindrance like A)
she’s dying, should still I stick with her? B) her brother is the one that ran over my wife, should
still I persist with her? C) she can't haver children, should still I persist with her? D) she says
that, so one can be with me, I should still cease sending letters on bottles to my lifeless wife,
may still I persist with her? E) she stated that, if she’d ever be in a coma, I should still flip off the
machines after 12 weeks, may still I recognize it? (view spoiler)[This difficulty E) would’ve
supplied an excellent book. Really. I congratulate him for taking into account it. However, I
requested an individual that i admire if she’d do it for me. may she flip off the machines if I went
via a coma? She acknowledged no – that’s opposed to God’s will. and that i knew she didn’t
love me enough. Well, i need to have a truly pushy thought on love, so I hated the book. Hated
isn’t enough. I ABOMINE the message bought through this book. i used to be incredulous with
how SMALL the affection bought on those pages is. What if those that learn this begins to
imagine that this is often real love? That to end up an individual that he loves it you might want
to positioned the individual via agony, having her ass being wiped clean up through unknown
humans for 50 years? In my opinion, love simply should be more. greater than Travis “loving”
Gabby and never with the ability to think his lifestyles with out her. If he revered her, he’d by no
means burn the felony records while she calls for this mesure. for the reason that it’s Nicholas
Sparks, in fact she’ll increase up from the dead. In actual lifestyles she’d rot in bed. yet wager
what? the lady wakes as much as a guy who neglected her needs and doesn’t even get mad! a
guy in who she can’t in actual fact trust. a guy you’ll no longer communicate up her voice while
she’s out of one. A egocentric man, so selfish! i can't placed a grain of religion right into a love
like this.This represents the second one a part of the book, now not introduced within the
synopsis. the 1st a part of the booklet is ready how (almost) faultless humans meet one another
and fall in love over days of striking around. Did I point out that she has a four yr relationship?
Shall I additionally point out that, days after their evolvement, while a piece colleague attempts
to kiss Gabby, the so-called lover (Travis) punches him within the face and tells her to sue the
“aggressor”? Fuck logic. Where’s her rationalization to the boyfriend? The ebook has an
important gap within the middle. In a minute they’re using a bike and, at the subsequent
minute, she’s in coma and he loves her dearly, the 2 of them are married they usually have
kids. (hide spoiler)]Sparks wrote this novel over his knees. Anyway, if I ever get right into a
coma please be mindful Ramón Sampedro’s phrases (a Spanish citizen who spent 30 years in
mattress with out with the ability to flow any a part of his physique yet his head – there’s the
movie, the ocean Inside):“The person who loves me is the only who’ll aid me
die”._________________________________É para aí o décimo livro que leio de Nicholas
Sparks depois de uma pausa de alguns anos… o último que tinha lido foi o Juntos ao Luar.
Resumindo: continua o mesmo. Se querem conhecer o estilo recorrente de NS somem estes
ingredientes:- Muitos diálogos a propósito de nada com piadas aleatórias.- Chavalinho porreiro
com covinhas na cara que bebe cerveja- Chavalinha com mau feitio que bebe vitamin CokeEncontros comuns – jantares, barbecues – combinados e sem nada de espontâneo, onde eles
discutem a espontaneidade e decidem que vão dar um mergulho, aprender a andar de mota,
algo do género.- Beijos conservadores no ultimate desse primeiro encontro- Um viúvo- Alguém
estéril- Um acidente- Uma doença- Um cão- Uma ligação inexplicável com um animal que não
lembra a ninguém – como o Noah da Alquimia do Amor com o cisne, ou agora o Travis com um
pombo.- Um dilema ethical complicado, do género: a) ela está a morrer, vale a pena ficar com
ela? b) ela diz que para ficar com ela tenho que deixar de mandar garrafas com mensagens à
minha mulher que morreu c) ela não pode ter filhos, fico com ela? d) o irmão dela é que
atropelou e matou a minha mulher, fico com ela? e) ela pediu que, caso ficasse em coma, etc.,
ecu devia desligar as máquinas ao ultimate de doze semanas. Desligo?Este dilema e) teria
dado um livro excelente. A sério. Gabo-lhe o ter pensado nessa questão, embora não seja
totalmente nova, e teria sofrido e vivido realmente este tema. Tudo porque, saberei lá ecu
explicar, fiz o mesmo pedido a uma pessoa próxima. Se por algum motivo ficar em estado
vegetativo, ajudem-me a morrer, já que cá não se pode escolher esse desligar das máquinas,
segundo sei. A pessoa disse que não o faria. Não o faria porque gosta de mim. Bom ecu devo
ter uma ideia muito distorcida do amor, detestei. Não, detestei não chega, DETESTEI, em caps,
a mensagem que o Sparks passa neste livro. Fiquei indignada com a pequenhez deste amor
que ele descreve e que vende, e que muitas mulheres/homens, se é que o lêem, compram
como o ideal. O único, o genuíno. E a dignidade humana? A mulher teria de ficar meses –
anos…! – à espera de acordar numa cama, quem sabe se aprisionada no próprio corpo mas
consciente, a ansiar por ser libertada? Por poder morrer? Para lhe removerem os tubos que lhe
sustêm a vida? Com o corpo a atrofiar-se? O rabo a ser limpo por terceiros? Amor, para mim,
tem de ser mais. Mais do que ele gostar dela e não imaginar a vida sem ela. Se a ama respeitaa. Se a respeita cumpre o que ela lhe pediu, em desespero. Mas não, mais vale arriscar,
queimar os papéis legais onde ela estipula esse pedido e fazer figas para que ainda esteja vivo
um dia, se ela acordar. E depois, como é Nicholas Sparks *spoiler* a senhora claro que acorda.
E nem se zanga! É escusado dizer que, se fosse eu, embora agradecesse a oportunidade para
ter regressado, me separasse quase certamente de um homem em que não podia confiar. É
isso o amor, não? Pedir a alguém que nos dê voz quando ela nos falta, e esperar que repita as
nossas palavras sem egoísmos. E ele foi egoísta, tão egoísta…! Não concebo amores
assim.Passada a fase da indignação acrescento que isto representa a segunda parte do livro.
A primeira deve-se ao modo como estes dois vizinhos se conhecem e a sinopse só se debruça
sobre ela. Ora a senhora tem namorado – quase noivo – e, ao ultimate de três dias, já anda
enrolada com o vizinho. real love, says Nicholas Sparks. Devo mencionar que, dias depois
quando um colega de trabalho dela tenta beijá-la o dito vizinho o esmurra e a aconselha a abrir
um processo contra ele de agressão física? Fuck logic. Onde está a explicação dela ao
namorado quando o larga? O livro sofre um pulo. Ora estão a passear de mota e conhecem-se
há três dias, ora já ela está em coma e ele a ama perdidamente, anos depois, casados e com
filhos. O senhor escreveu o livro nos joelhos. A Presença, mesmo na 8ª edição, tem o livro
cheio de gralhas. Não admira que seja dos dele de que menos se fala…Enfim, se ecu entrar em
coma, se ecu tiver um AVC e não puder falar, se european partir o pescoço e implorar a
alguém que me ajude a ter paz, façam-no! Como dizia Ramón Sampedro (Mar Adentro),
Aquele que me ama é aquele que me ajudará a morrer.PS - O nome do livro devia ser "Uma
