The surprise New York Times bestseller, from an author who delivers “American storytelling at its best.”

The story of marriage, family, and forgiveness that has become not just a bestseller but an instant classic

Their story begins with one letter on their wedding night, a letter from the groom, promising to write his bride every week—for as long they both shall live.

Thirty-nine years later, Jack and Laurel Cooper die in each other’s arms. And when their grown children return to the family B&B to arrange the funeral, they discover thousands of letters.

The letters they read tell of surprising joys and sorrows. They also hint at a shocking family secret—and ultimately force the children to confront a life-changing moment of truth…

Summary: Such a great book!
Comment: I am not an avid reader, so for me to read a book it really has to get my attention early. This book is an easy read and keeps you thinking, even after you thought you had it figured out. This is a must read, even if you don't like to read!

Summary: Don't bother
Comment: I would definitely not recommend this book. Very easy read-I read it in about 2.5 hours. This book seems more like a marketing ploy than a novel . It is poorly written and I believe is the type of book to appeal to people who rarely if ever read books. I didn't know about the christian agenda that the author had previously to purchasing it, but if the book was well written, it would not have bothered me.

If you are looking for a very light read, then check it out from the library, but don't expect much.

Summary: It could have been great...
Comment: The premise to the book was interesting and the development of the book was also quite well done. The ending was disappointing causing me to feel that the book was a waste of time. I pick up a book based on what plot descriptions and bits read from the book rather than relying on any newspaper review or other reviews. Actually, I didn't realize it was on a 'best sellers' list or so highly rated here online. I'm sure this book will be/is an fantastic read for some, but I felt it was definitely not up to the hype it receives. I'm not sure I'd race to other books by the author, but who knows?

Summary: can i please marry someone who writes ME wednesday letters?? (i could settle for tuesday letters too :)
Comment: Such a heartwarming book. Completely kept me engaged, and was very easy to read. Great story and great characters. I loved that this book showed some of the messiness of love and life, but still kept it clean and wholesome in terms of what the reader hears.
