I needed something to read on my vacation so I picked up Nicholas Sprak's "The Guardian" at the Sea-Tac airport bookstore.
First of all, I'm not an avid reader. In fact, I hardly ever finish reading a book from cover to cover. This one, I finished. It's pretty good reading. Some twists & turns, but overall, it kept me entertained. I haven't read any other Nicholas Sparks' books, but I have heard of some of his titles ("A Walk To Remember" and "Message in A Bottle") If you like mysteries, you should give this one a shot. You can probably finish it in a couple of days as it's pretty easy reading!
