Right now I'm reading The Manuscript by Michael Stephen Fuchs

It's a thriller set in the US but based on the fundamental philosophical questions in life: why are we here? Is there a purpose in life? Is there a God?

A really entertaining read & it deals with questions we all went through - and maybe still are

Name: The Last Song

Author: Nicholas Sparks

Genre: Romance

Outline: Seventeen year-old Veronica "Ronnie" Miller's life was turned upside-down when her parents divorced and her father moved from New York City to Wilmington, North Carolina. Three years later, she remains angry and alienated from her parents, especially her father… until her mother decides it would be in everyone's best interest if she spent the summer in Wilmington with him. Ronnie's father, a former concert pianist and teacher, is living a quiet life in the beach town, immersed in creating a work of art that will become the centerpiece of a local church. The tale that unfolds is an unforgettable story about love in its myriad forms – first love, the love between parents and children – that demonstrates, as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that deeply felt relationships can break our hearts… and heal them.

I recommend it because Sparks gives a hope to life, he keeps you going, somehow by the end of his every book you feel different, you relate yourself to that book, and you cannot deny it! His description is so realistic that you just know you're every person in the book that you're reading!

Name: The Rescue

Author: Nicholas Sparks

Genre: Romance, drama

Outline: When confronted by raging fires or deadly accidents, volunteer fireman Taylor McAden feels compelled to take terrifying risks to save lives. But there is one leap of faith Taylor can't bring himself to make: he can't fall in love. For all his adult years, Taylor has sought out women who need to be rescued, women he leaves as soon as their crisis is over and the relationship starts to become truly intimate. When a raging storm hits his small Southern town, single mother Denise Holton's car skids off the road. The young mom is with her four-year-old son Kyle, a boy with severe learning disabilities and for whom she has sacrificed everything. Taylor McAden finds her unconscious and bleeding, but does not find Kyle. When Denise wakes, the chilling truth becomes clear to both of them: Kyle is gone. During the search for Kyle, the connection between Taylor and Denise takes root. Taylor doesn't know that this rescue will be different from all the others, demanding far more than raw physical courage. It will lead him to the possibility of his own rescue from a life lived without love and will require him to open doors to his past that were slammed shut by pain. This rescue will dare him to live life to the fullest by daring to love.

I recommend it because Nicholas Sparks, a man can describe emotions so so perfectly!!

Name:The Incredible Banker

Author; Ravi Subramanian

Plot: For those of you who have read his previous books (IF GOD WAS A BANKER or DEVIL IN PINSTRIPES) or even those of you who havent. If corporate drama mixed with deceit and love is your cup of tea, this is the release of the month by my reckoning. It's yet to be released yet but if you do visit his facebook page or even his website, you will find interesting video trailers detailing the book! search for Ravi Subramanian on fb for more info...This is one book i can't wait for. Apparently it releases on the 21st of this month!

Name: The Lucky one

Author: Nicholas Sparks

Genre: Romance, drama

Outline: When U.S. Marine Logan Thibault finds a photograph of a smiling young woman half-buried in the dirt during his third tour of duty in Iraq, his first instinct is to toss it aside. Instead, he brings it back to the base for someone to claim, but when no one does, he finds himself always carrying the photo in his pocket. Soon Thibault experiences a sudden streak of luck—winning poker games and even surviving deadly combat that kills two of his closest buddies. Only his best friend, Victor, seems to have an explanation for his good fortune: the photograph—his lucky charm.
Back home in Colorado, Thibault can't seem to get the photo—and the woman in it—out of his mind. Believing that she somehow holds the key to his destiny, he sets out on a journey across the country to find her, never expecting the strong but vulnerable woman he encounters in Hampton, North Carolina—Elizabeth, a divorced mother with a young son—to be the girl he's been waiting his whole life to meet. Caught off guard by the attraction he feels, Thibault keeps the story of the photo, and his luck, a secret. As he and Elizabeth embark upon a passionate and all-consuming love affair, the secret he is keeping will soon threaten to tear them apart—destroying not only their love, but also their lives.
Filled with tender romance and terrific suspense, The Lucky One is Nicholas Sparks at his best—an unforgettable story about the surprising paths our lives often take and the power of fate to guide us to true and everlasting love.

I recommend it because it's by THE Nicholas Sparks 😎
