Query: What is the big deal about this book?

This is the first and only book that I would say just watch the movie. I don't like the book, in reality, I really didn't love the movie. Too sad, too depressing and sappy. I really struggled to keep reading the book. I think it jumps around too much and is really s.l.o.w. I just don't get why it was on the best seller list for so long. This is the third book written by Nicholas Sparks that I have read, and I think it will be the last.
