Critic reviews

"This is a rare opportunity for readers to get to know a favorite author as Nicholas reveals the inspirations for his fiction. A must-read for Sparks fans as well as a treat for those who want to find out what makes a family strong." (Booklist)
"Refreshingly honest and perceptive....Weaving in vignettes of tenderness and loss with travelogue-like observations, Sparks's account shows how he and his brother both evolved on this voyage." (Publishers Weekly)

Three Weeks with My Brother

I really enjoyed this book as it gave an insight into the author, Nicholas Sparks, that I did not know previously. It sheds light on why he wrote some of his fictional books that I have read. I had to pay close attention to the storyline to realize when he was shifting from his current adventures and reflecting on his past life with his family of origin.

I understand perspective of his other books now

I walk through Memory Lane with the good the bad iFunny in my life .really nice

Three Weeks with My Brother

The best book by Nicholas Sparks ever! Very moving and real.

Wonderful

I really enjoyed the book! I felt all the stories close to my heart. I would definitely read it again.

Inspiring!

This story was inspiring, it shared love loss, humor and adventure. It was so nice to hear the bright side, even with the losses & struggles that they experienced.

Excellent

I haven't read a lot of Nicholas Sparks' books, but this sounded interesting. I couldn't put it down. It makes you feel very connected with the author. He talks about his family and personal tragedies with openness, warmth and humor. After reading this, I am going to go back and read some of his other stories as he explained what his inspiration was. It was a wonderful read and I would highly recommend.

Three weeks with my brother...

Wow This story touched me deeply and I only wish that I had the same connection with my own family but it seem as though we all drifted apart after my own brothers death. I also find myself always trying to make every one like me and strive to keep my own family together and close. Made me feel as though I was reading my own life in someone else’s eyes . Absolutely loved it .

Must read or listen

Nicholas Sparks makes you feel like part of his family. I couldn’t put it down . The intimate look into his family is awe inspiring.
I saw my own simple childhood in some of his memories. I can’t imagine the magnitude of thoughts and memories as he relived his life and tragedies. His faith is an inspiration

Absolutely Moving a Masterpiece

I didn't think I would like it. while I have read most of the Spark a books and loved them all. I think the title kept me from getting excited about this one. I finally started reading it. could not put it down. it is my favorite.

Great Read!!

I always feel sad when I finish one of Mr. Sparks books its like saying goodbye to a good friend. I wish he could write faster!! I have read everyone of his books and I have never been disappointed. He is one of the greats!!
