Literary blog assingment number 4

     The author of my book is Nicholas Sparks. Sparks uses different kind of styles, depending on the character some of them use slang when communicating with each other but most of them speak more business- like. For example John and his dad speak more in formal when talking to each other, because John's dad speaks in very short sentences like only one word answers " I'll probably be sleeping." " I didn't mean it literally ". ( Sparks, 104 ) When you see Savannah and all her friends talk they talk in short sentences but more of a high vocabulary of words. Sparks chose to write Dear John in first person point of view. The book is organized into chapters but with three parts, Chapters 1-12, Chapters 12-16 and 16-20. I am just finishing Part 1 so I think that their would be a reason for splitting it up into 3 parts but I have not gotten their yet. I think Sparks decided to write it how he did so far because he doesn't think and love story is written in formal and because he wants to get it across to young girls to read it. I think it helps people understand love and the many ways it can go. The way the Sparks wrote the book really got across to me, I like love story and romantic novels but not all authors I like. I thought Sparks did a very good job of writing the book, it doesn't go into to much detail but enough detail for us to understand.
