The Rescue by Nicholas Spark

One of the way for me to improve my writing in English is by reading. I love reading. By reading I learn a bunch of new words. With that new words I increase my vocabulary. Although not all new words I learn I remember, but when I see it in other text, I eventually will try to remember what it is about.

I've finish reading a novel by Nicholas Spark. I don't know who the hell is Nicholas. One thing I know is that I've read his novel titled 'The Last Song'. I do remember how I finish the novel with tears. It sure made me reflect who I am.

Then I manage to read Nicholas other books called 'The Rescue'. How interesting to read it as a reader and a writer.

Before this I read as a reader. I criticize if it doesn't fit with my preferences. But then I realise that I was wrong. As a writer, I should look more deeper in what I read which is the way the writer write.

Ah thank you Sifu Azzah for reminding me this. It sounds harsh, but I know it is for my own goodness.

Anyway, back to the novel. I remember vividly its characters involved who name are Denise, Kyle, Judy, Taylor, Mitch and Melissa. There are bunch of other names but for sure those six gave me big impact to read further.

I like how Nicholas able to describe the event which then I too immersed the feeling of each characters.

I understand how Nicholas describe the surrounding and its effect on the character.

Oh I also like the way Melissa advice Taylor. She knows Taylor want to help but then, that is not what she want after all. What Taylor need is some guidance about himself. She knows Taylor has a problem of the past. But then Taylor refuse to admit it to anyone else.

I like the way the author able to describe the story. After all I guess I want to know whether Taylor will become Denise's husband or not.

At first I was thinking that the conflict will begin with Denise has a problem with Kyle's true father. But then, that is not the main plot after all.

I can give a 3 out of 5 stars on this novel. Good but not the one I can go for.
