Editorial Review:
James Patterson's #1 New York Times bestseller combines two unforgettable love stories in a novel that's impossible to put down. Jennifer returns to the resort village where she grew up to help her ailing, beloved grandmother-and ends up experiencing not one but two of the most amazing love stories she's ever known. The first is completely unexpected. In a series of letters that Jennifer finds, her grandmother reveals that she has concealed a huge secret for decades: Her great love is not the man she was married to for all those years. And then comes the biggest surprise of all: Just when she thought she could never love again, Jennifer finds herself caught up in the greatest flight of exhilaration she's ever known. But just as unexpectedly, she learns that this new love comes with an unbearable cost. Jennifer doesn't think she can survive the pain-but the letters she's been reading make her think that love may help her find a way.
Sam's Letters to Jennifer Reviews:
A must read!! 
2008-09-17 - I loved this novel and would like to see the world read it. I think it told the well known, though not often practiced, secret of living a fulfilled life. Dream big, laugh often and never let a day go by without loving with all your heart. Life is a journey and we make of it what we will, but love for self and others is the key to true peace. Life hands us hard choices and bad luck but we can and will thrive if we just believe. Every new day is the beginning of the rest of your life. Its all about perspective and I for one am happy that I was reminded of the simple things that make life a grand adventure and can't wait to embrace it..with all of my heart.
B+, Good, Light Reading and Romance To Boot 
2008-07-27 - This wasn't a tear-jerker for me. Mebbe I'm a cold-hearted fish. But I dug it. I read the book in 3 or 4 hours. I think it could have been longer.
I thought there would be more letters from Sam (Grandmother) to her granddaughter, Jennifer. If there are about 170 of them, how come we only read about 20 of them?
The book moves fast. It is easy to read. I think if the book had been longer, the author would have laid down more for me to become more emotionally invested in the characters.
But it's love triumphs over the hardships in life. Short & sweet.
A Nice Little Story 
2008-06-03 - I did not love Sam, and I did not love her letters, but I loved Jennifer and her romance with Brendan. This book is worth reading for them alone. And it's short enough that you can endure reading Sam's letters without wasting too much of your life.
Warning: SPOILER!
When Brendan went into surgery, I was CRYING! And I loved it!
Couldn't put it down 
2008-05-31 - Couldn't put this book down,,only took me 1 1/2 days to read it.God reading.
Manipulative, but sweet 
2008-05-09 - Worth the $2 I spent on it at the used book sale. (They lost me when the hero brings an electrocuted kitty back to life - oy!)
