The Final Note

The Final Note is a thought-provoking, inspirational and heart-breaking novel. It's romantic and tragic. The anger Ethan feels and expresses is harsh, yet understandable. Texting is a real issue today; I urge everyone not to text while driving. Sure he blames the driver who puts the love of his life in a coma, who wouldn't? But forgiveness is something Ethan will have to arrive to on his own to find peace in life to move forward with his future. I found it very hard to like Ethan but understood his feelings and sometimes irrational behavior. Anna is a very likable character and I really adored her. Ethan's grandfather harbors his own secrets, but he also tries to help Ethan. Milne does a great job of character development, dialogue, and creating a scene you can immerse yourself into. A very satisfying read!
