Response to comments on Dear John

     I have actually watched the movie Dear John before I started reading the book. Therefore I know what is going to happen. Even though I saw the movie the book is still quite different in many ways. A major difference is that John didnt come to stay with Savannah for a long time in between his army duties.Also Tim's kid in the movie is actually Tim's brother in the book.
     Although the differences are minor they still contribute to the story.Even if you already have seen a movie you can still read the book because in ways it's always going to be different and the books give you more vivid discriptions.
