Leading the Valentine’s parade down the avenue of sickening love is Nicholas Sparks.
Through old classics and new creations he keeps reminding us what it feels like to have your heart ripped out. He does this so well readers may even cry when I mention my favorite love novel, "The Notebook."
"The Notebook" has been a favorite since it hit the shelves in October 1996 and made The New York Times best-seller list the week it was released.
The story is packed full of love and tragedy that is sure to make readers cry each time through. Not to mention it is thought to be a true story, which makes it even more sickening to read.

A Valentine’s Day pity party would not be complete without our favorite classic valentines, Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy of "Pride and Prejudice."
"Pride and Prejudice" is a tangled love story of two people coming from different lifestyles that soon become intertwined. The love that is threatened by social standing and wealth prevails, allowing us all to dream of finding our Mr. Darcy.
