Customer Reviews

Wonderful story!

This was a great story, very hard to put down! After finishing I almost wanted to read it again. Generational love. A great read for young adults who still have grandparents living , to relate the past and present.

Beautifully loving

Sam's Letters to Jennifer is another wonderful love story from James Patterson. Be forewarned though, you WILL need a box of Kleenex standing by.Departing from his infamous Alex Cross murder mystery genre, Patterson has written a very loving book on relationships. Sam is Jennifer's grandmother and the bond that they share is incredibly special. Through a series of letters left to Jennifer by Sam, Jennifer finds out that the grandmother that she has known throughout her life has secrets of her own. Jennifer reads these letters at her grandmother's house, while not knowing if her grandmother will be pulling out the coma after her unexpected fall. Jennifer not only learns about herself in these letters, but also finds the "real" woman her grandmother is and has been and Jennifer is drawn even closer to her grandmother. Not believing in love after the loss of her soul-mate husband, Jennifer learns to open up the door to the possibility of love and finds that magic still does exist for her. This was a very quick read and the reader is totally absorbed into the secret of the letters and what Jennifer will do with her new awareness of her grandmother. This book is wonderful, with several surprises along the way, keeping the reader guessing on just what will happen. Full of love and caring on each of the character's parts, this story will stay with you for awhile, as well as bring tears and smiles along with the knowledge that the power of love is indeed strong and eternal.I absolutely "loved" this book and wish that Patterson would write more books like this. His sensitivity and insight are remarkable. If you have not read his previous book, Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas, I would also highly recommend that incredible love story, which is an actual true story. This book is special and I am sure that a little of its' magic will spill into your life!

Riveting, feel good book

Just finsihed Sam's Letters to Jennifer. I thought it was very captivating and a "cannot put down" book. I loved the way Mr Patterson showed the love between a grandmother and granddaughter. Although there was tradedy in this book, real love conquers all. This is a must read if you liked Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas, and I did.

great love story

This was a wonderful book ,it showed a perspective of love from a young love to an aged love . It gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside ... like I was there with them , talking to Sam and reading the letters and trying to figure out who Doc was , learning a whole nother life that I never knew my grandmother lead. I don't want to give out to many details cause it is a must read .

Sensational...a must-read

I adored Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas, and while Sam's Letters to Jennifer seemed to follow in it's footsteps, it was still excellent. It is a beautiful, simple, moving love story which entwines two pairs of lovers. It shows readers how simply beautiful life can be, and how the smallest things are really what counts in the end. I adored this. Buy it!

Love is in the air!

Patterson should stick to romance! His last two have been wonderful and I have managed to read both of them in one sitting. I love the idea of writing letters-to tell a story. This story manages two love stories in one book AND throws in a little mystery at the same time. I can't imagine a tougher life than the one Jennifer is leading. So many different obstacles to overcome. She is very lucky to have Sam in her life. I won't spoil any of the book I'll just say it's an amazing read and I will cherish this as much as I do Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas!
