To start; this book is AMAZING & I would highly recommend for every single person EVER to read this book. If you're on the fence about whether to buy it or not... fall off the fence. Buy it NOW!The Promise deals a lot with a topic that isn't talked about much... soldiers not coming home from war. My own AMAZING fiance was taken from me in Afghanistan in 2011. So at first, this was a very hard read for me. Kate captures the loss so perfectly that this story became therapeutic for me to read, cry, and enjoy.But this isn't Jack's story (the soldier who never came home).. this is Sophie"s story (the fiance left at home).So many things I love about this story...1. It is written from 4 POVS, as well as Sophie"s memories with Jack. This allows you to feel much closer to each character.2. It has 3, I repeat, THREE great love stories in it! Sophie and Jack's told in memories, Sophie and Chases, and Ana and Drake's.3. It has sooo much meat! The Promise is over 500 pages!The rest you will find out for yourself, when you BUY THIS BOOK!<3P.s. this needs to become a paperback so I can hold it close forever!
