Line 8:

Not to be confused with [[The Notebook (novel)|the novel of the same name by Nicholas Sparks]].
{{tropelist}}
* [[Shower of Angst|Bath of Angst]]: After Allie sees Noah again in the paper.
* [[Beta Couple]]: It is revealed near the end that Allie's mother was in the same situation as Allie when she was her age.
Line 19 ⟶ 20:
* [[Dating What Daddy Hates]]: Though the mother is more active in this trope, the parents don't like Noah being the working type.
* [[December-December Romance]]: A deleted scene outlines this exact scenario with a background couple.
* [[Double Standard]]: A subtle one. It's hard to imagine a woman dangling from a Ferris wheel unless a man agrees to date her being depicted as anything but psychotic or at least pathetic but when Noah does this to win Allie its considered a romantic gesture.
* [["Falling in Love" Montage]]:
* [[Framing Device]]: The story is told by an old man to an old lady with Alzheimer's. {{spoiler|The old couple turn out to be the couple in the story.}}
* [[Happily Ever After]]
{{quote|'''Duke''': And they lived happily ever after.
'''Allie''': WHO?! (Cue [[The Reveal]])
* [[Happily Married]]
* [[Hopeless Suitor]]: Lon becomes this only after Noah comes back into Allie's life.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
* [[Love Triangle]]: Noah, Allie, and Lon in the second half of the movie.
* [[Missing Mom]]: Noah's mother is only mentioned in passing in a deleted scene. No other reference is made to her existence.
* [[Murder the Hypotenuse]]:
* [[Parental Hypocrisy]]: Allie's mother scoffs at Allie falling in love a day-laborer in the first act. In the third act, however, she shows Allie that she once loved a day-laborer as well, but instead married Allie's father. She still has feelings for the working man as well.
** This might be a subversion as her objections are later revealed to be a fear of her daughter repeating her mistakes.
* [[Slap Slap Kiss]]: Noah and Allie's relationship is very much like this, with this exact thing happening in an early scene.
* [[Race For Your Love]]: Noah races to make up with Allie at the end of Act 1, when she moves away.
* [[The Reveal]]:
* [[Romance Arc]]
* {{spoiler|[[Together in Death]]: Despite Alzheimer's keeping them apart, Noah and Allie manage to die together in the end.}}
* [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]: Noah and Allie after they reunite, especially during the dinner scene.
