Dear Listener,
Have you ever gotten a letter that changed your life completely? It happened to me once. I still can feel the urgency that overtook me as I opened the envelope and the hunger I felt for whatever that letter would say. It seemed as if my entire life hung in the balance as I read.

Story
How did a boy from small-town New York become the world’s most successful writer? How does he do it? He has always wanted to write the kind of novel that would be read and reread so many times that the binding breaks and the book literally falls apart. As he says, “I’m still working on that one.”

Awesome Author
I have read several of James Patterson's other books. I love him as an author. When I read "Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas" I couldn't even believe that it was a Patterson book! How could such a gruesome, murder mystery type auther write such a compasssionate, feeling, extraordinarily nice book. But the style is still his. He still works in his wonderful plot twists! Kudos James, what an awesome author!

Not as mushy as it sounds...
I saw the title and thought, "C'mon!" But I was surprised. This is well written tale, that will keep you interested until the end. Well worth the time. Heart-renching at times, but a great listen.

Absoutely touching...
This is one of the most touching books I have read in a while. As so many others have written, I too, did not want this one to end. I felt the love, the pain and all the possible emotions throughout this book and although I didn't shed a tear, I was so choked up at times that I really struggled to keep running (I listen to my books whilst running and let me warn others, its not good to choke up when running!!)
If you have any doubt about whether to purchase this one and you enjoy an emotional story then dont wait a moment longer.
The reader of this book does a fantastic job also and has a very listenable voice.
Thoroughly enjoyed and will no doubt listen to this one again in the future.

Isn't it Lucky!
I enjoy reading mysteries and detective novels. James Patterson is one of my favorite authors and I have read several of his books. As I began to listen to Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas my first impression was, "what is a mystery writer doing writing a "girly" book?" But as I listened I was struck by his ability to write with simplicity, fluidity, and a deep heartfelt sincerity as he wrote a mother?s heart for her precious child. He wrote with a depth of love and with a fullness of life that I could only wish I had been able to communicate to my kids when they were young. I have not been so moved emotionally since I read Tilly by Peretti. I picked up Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas thinking it was another detective story. It wasn't! Isn't it lucky!

A good
I usually prefer books with a little more length and meat to them. This was a good book to listen to in between the more intense heavier books. Short, good story, good narration. I would definately put this in the category of chick-lit. It is not your typical Patterson book. It's far more like a Harlequin Romance. It probably would have made a good "made for T.V. movie". Not a waste of time, but not a book you'll think about for too long after it's over.

As a 72 year old male this story probably wasn’t written for me. I love a good love story though. But this was a Lifetime movie with all the sappy dialogue. Young women loved it I’m sure.

A good swimming pool book. Nothing more
It reminded me of a Nicholas Sparks book - maybe an unfair stereotype since the only Sparks book I have ever read was The Notebook, and that was years and years ago. At any rate, it was a cheesy plot that was totally predictable. Sorry I wasted an Audible credit. The narration was good, but the occasional musical accompaniments were totally unnecessary and annoying.

Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas
I found this book a refreshing change for James patterson fans
It takes you on a journey actually two journey's into the lives of two intelligent women who both love the same man. It encapsulates Pattersons talent to enter the minds of his characters so that they jump to life on each page. Excellent easy reading!

Story with no story!
I downloaded this on the strength of it's reviews both on here and Amazon. I always wonder about reviews when I see one negative one amongst a lot of positive. I ask myself whether I will agree with the one person! In this case I did! This was totally predictable with no real plot. The voice got on my nerves too! I found myself drifting away as it didn't catch my interest at all. On one occasion I actually fell asleep! I worked out the end right at the beginning and don't quite know why I carried on listening. I think he should stick to crime!
