PATRON PICKS--The Best of Me

Kim's pick is The Best of Me, by Nicholas Sparks

Synopsis:
A high school couple, Amanda Collier and Dawson Cole, are torn apart by unforeseen events which sets them on radically divergent paths.  Twenty-five years later, Amanda and Dawson are brought back to their home town of Oriental to attend the funeral of Tuck Hostetler, the mentor who once gave shelter to their high school romance.  Neither has lived the life they imagined...and neither can forget the passionate first love that forever changed their lives.  As Amanda and Dawson carry out the instructions Tuck left behind for them, they realize that everything they thought they knew was not as it seemed.  Forced to confront painful memories, the two former lovers will discover undeniable truths about the choices they have made.  

Kim says:  What an amazing story of love, strength and coming of age!  It was inspiring and heartbreaking.  Very well written.  A must-read for all book lovers!
