How amazing is Nicholas Sparks? He writes so sensitively and
sincerely. Three Weeks is particularly unique among his works
because it is a memoir. It faces all the memories of tragedy
in the two brothers lives i.e.: their mom dying, their dad's
car accident, the death and illness of children and so many
other turbulent matters.
I really have come to understand why Mr. Sparks became a
writer. His experience is valuable to anyone who reads a
sentence of his. Tied into the memories that are explored in
this memoir, are adventure and intrigue into mythical parts of
the world. I couldn't put the book down.
It is eloquent and beautiful as well as touching and easy
to relate to. I loved the overall importance of family and the
bond that ties the brothers together forever.
It reminds me a little of Lucky Monkeys In The Sky by M.
Geraldi (especially with the traveling, the facing the past,
and the way it conveys an overall very important message) only
in it is about brothers instead of young woman and her family.
Both deal with some very serious, extremely emotional
issues, and deal with these issues in a profound and artistic
way. Three Weeks With My Brother is a very well done novel. I
thank Mr. Sparks for letting us into his life. -A reader
