Nicholas Sparks, though, always seems to elicit a different sort of split: people either loooooooooooooooove his books or are relatively indifferent toward them.  I read (and saw) The Notebook, and didn't quite get the hype, though didn't find it entirely unenjoyable, either.  My beloved sister, on the other hand, looooooooooooooooooooooved the book and the movie and suspects that I may, in fact, have no soul.                                                                      |                                                                                           |                                                                                                                                                                         'The Lucky One' Movie Review                                                                                                                       The Lucky One, which hit theaters on Friday, is based on Nicholas Sparks' 2008 release of the same name.  I'll ruin the surprise for you just a smidge: if you liked other Sparks-based movies, you'll probably like this one.  If you didn't?  Read on for a chuckle.                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                           Nicholas Sparks Movies                                                                                                                       Speaking of Nicholas Sparks books-into-movies, here's a complete list.  If you like crying in your popcorn and haven't seen all of these, get to it.                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                           Nicholas Sparks Complete Bibliography                                                                                                                       Believe it or not, there are Nicholas Sparks books that haven't been made into movies, and you'll find several of them on this list.  Which one is the best, though?  Over 200 of our readers have weighed in on that question.                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                           Nicholas Sparks Biography                                                                                                                       Who is this Nicholas Sparks fellow, anyway?  Well, for one thing, he's much cuter than I thought he would be.  Also, a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, so I should probably avoid making snarky comments about him in the future.                                                                                                                     |                                                                         |                                                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                         |                                                                                      Books & Literature Ads                                    |                             |                             |                             |                                                                                         Featured Articles                                                                                       |                                                                         |                                                                                                                                   |   |                                                                                                                                         |                                                                                                                          More from About.com                                                                                         |                             |                             |                             |                             |                                                                                |                                                                                        Financial Emergencies                                                                                          An unexpected change in your financial situation can be incredibly stressful.
