I'm a big Nicholas Sparks fan, but this was not a favorite. Took too long to grab my interest...once it did, I was at the end of the book.

Nicholas Sparks can basically do no wrong in my mind and this book is another grand slam. I laughed, I cried, I fell in and out of love with characters. Highly recommended.

"Maybe," Bowen said. "Or maybe not. There's no way to know for sure. And while it may be normal to feel guilty, it's also important to remember that guilt is simply an emotion, and like emotions, it will eventually pass. Unless you choose to hold on to it." Books by Nicholas Sparks are like Hallmark movies, in my opinion. The plot is mostly predictable, but it's enjoyable read nonetheless. The Return is your typical Sparks book set in North Carolina with a complex love story. However, this one had some depth as well. I appreciated the emphasis on grief, the way to cope with PTSD, and Trevor's conversations with his psychiatrist. It's a great read for those looking for a clean romance with some depth. – Megan G.

Maybe a touch slow to start, but Nicholas Sparks didn't disappoint. I didn't want it to end.

The Return had a lot of secrets within it that kept me intrigued over the course of the entire book. It wasn’t just a generic love story but it really dove deeper into the healthy aspects of falling in love. The contrast with so many relationships and how the love is displayed differently in wach one is interesting as well.
