Unforgettable... Review on Love Story - Erich Segal

I will never forget this book.

I will never forget Oliver Barret IV.

I will never forget Jennifer Cavilleri.

Its been three weeks since the first time I read this book, and I still can't stop thinking about it. I already knew that Erich Segal was a master of the art. I mean, I've read ''Doctors'' about 50 times. But somehow, despite having heard the name about a million times, I never had gotten around to reading ''Love Story'', which is hard to beleive (Its actually referred to in countless Hindi movies!).

This is a book that I would recommend to everyone. Its only been three weeks since I read it and I've already made a great deal of my friends read it and bought copies of it for my parents and brother. Its a timeless classic, I'm sure I'll make my own children read it.

What was amazing about this novel was that from the first page to the last, I felt as though I knew the characters. I laughed at Oliver's sarcasm and Jenny's wisecracks, I smiled at the bond that formed between two people who were nothing alike, and I cried until my eyes hurt at the fate of their love. This is a story that reknews your faith in love.

Yes, this book made me cry more than any other story I've ever read, but do I regret reading it? Never. I guess it just goes to show; ''It is better to have loved and to have lost, then to never have loved at all.''
