Reviews with content warning for Cancer - Přání

This was such a nice, heartfelt story. Even though I could guess where a lot of the plotlines were going, they were written so beautifully that I still shed a few tears, which I wouldn't have expected. It was a bit of a slow burn, but it paid off very well in the end. 10/10

Wow. In true Nicholas Sparks fashion, this book had me crying. What a sweet story.

The twist at the end was so sweet; that Mark is Maggie’s child. Their relationship was precious.

I loved the book, the story was great and well written. You could really feel yourself there with Maggie. I took away half a star because it was really sad, and a little bit predictable. But I highly recommend it, especially at Christmas time

I haven’t read a Nicolas Sparks book for a long time, despite him being my of my favorite authors when I was younger. I have heard good things about this one and finally decided to try it. I’m so glad I did. I knew this book would be emotional, but I don’t think I was prepared for the amount of crying I did at the end. Slow start, but I quickly became enthralled with Maggie and Bryce’s story and Maggie and Mark’s relationship. I knew where we were headed for one of the relationships but it still hit me hard. Beautiful story about love.

This book brought out so many different emotions in me while reading. It was heartwarming and sad, but it reflected on how life actually can be. It made me smile and cry. And it really makes you think of what opportunity should you embrace today. Is tomorrow too late or will it be fate.
