This book was the farthest from what I expected from Nicholas Sparks. I didn't enjoy this book near as much as the past novels I've enjoyed by him. The characters were well developed as usual, but the plot line was more dark than I tend to prefer. I am hopeful that this is not going to become the new style of Sparks.

Loved the book and after I read the book I automatically watched the movie. Movie wasn't as good as the book. Nicholas Sparks you have done it again.

It was ok, but I found it very creepy that the dead wife of the guy (Carly/Jo) encounraged another person (Katie) to fall in love and have sex with her husband. So considerate of her to think in her husband and kids, but I think she goes too far. It's exaggerated. And then she says that she's not jealous of Katie. If she says this, I think she didn't really love her family. Every normal person would feel jealous of not being able to share a life with the people she loves.

"Safe Haven" is probably one of the greatest books I've read by Nicholas Sparks -- in a long time. Purchased this novel five days ago and 42 chapters later I finished it in less than five days. This book was very hard to put down and I would recommend this to anyone in an abusive relationship and, of course to all of the dedicated Nicholas Sparks fans.

This book had a shocking ending. Want to read it all over again!
