The main character, Theresa, has all kinds of issues - she was in love with David - they had a kid - and then OH NO! he cheated on her. To add salt to her wound - when David left her (alone with the kid), he didn't take the mistress. He went and found someone else! Sparks also seems a bit obsessed with her boobies - it's like he just found out what they were, so he wants to tell the whole world about them.
I can tell you that something tragic happens to Theresa - who knows what it is, but I have a feeling it regards Garrett. Garrett is the writer of these horribly sappy letters that he tosses out into the ocean in bottles - doesn't he know that the ocean has enough litter in it already? Anyway, Theresa finds one of these "messages in a bottle" and becomes obsessed with it. Why won't anyone love her the way Garrett loves Catherine (who is the person the letters are addressed to)?
And that is as far as I've gotten. I got a bit sidetracked with another book - yes, I've been cheating on Nicholas Sparks. In the past two days I read "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." I couldn't put it down, and it was an absolutely incredible read. I highly recommend it to everyone, even if you're not a big fan of thriller books. I'm usually not, but it was so gripping I couldn't stop.
I'll go back to my large print book again today. But first, I need to go hiking with the family in beautiful Montana.
