Hey Ally. I finished reading "The Notebook" and I totally agree with you that it is wayyy better than the movie. Though, the movie storyline is kept close to that of the book, which I like the best. I love how, in the book, they talk about the two when they are older but in the movie, they concentrate on when they were younger. I would reread the book again, it's that great. I couldn't believe it that it was the author's first book. I absolutely love it.
