I had never read a book by James Patterson before reading "Suzanne's Diary for NIcholas", but I had seen a couple of the movies made from his books and enjoyed those very much. I had read some of the online reviews of this book and was torn as to whether I wanted to read it or not. After reading this book I understand why the die-hard Patterson fans were upset and disappointed. It is not his usual prose by far. But a great writer can write in different voices. And with "Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas", Patterson found a new voice. I don't believe he will write in this voice often, but there are times when in life you have to do just what your heart tells you to do, not what people expect of you, and I imagine this was one of those times for Patteron. "Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas" was just that, a diary and was written in short diary form entries.

It is a short-sweet beautiful love story. To have love that is described in the pages of this book is almost a fantasy. There were times as I was reading this book my heart yearned to feel what these characters were feeling. But of course as in life to every story there is tragedy, anguish, pain, and a slight mystery. This book is well worth the read if you like a gripping love story.

It is impossible to get your nose out of Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson. In this sweet love story of both romance and mystery, Katie struggles to understand why the man she thought she loved left her. Matt has handed down the diary of a new mother Suzanne who made a document of all her hopes and memories of her new family and marriage. Katie begins to understand much hurt what has happened and wonders with all her heart whether she and this new love of hers has a chance of surving. I really enjoyed this book being a romance lover and could not put it down. Like Katie I just wanted to understand what was happening. I especially liked the characters that James Patterson developed throughout the novel. They were just the type that I hope to meet in my future years. This book should be read by anyone who enjoys an easy and quick yet heart warming love story. I would definitely rate this book with five stars.

I read this book in just a few hours- it was excellent. Then I let three co-workers borrow my copy, and each one of them finished the book in one night. A simply wonderful story- but make sure you have some tissues handy!
