Summary: a walk to remember
Review: A walk to remember is one of the most touching books i have ever read. This story is mainly about love and overcoming obstacles. During the beginning of the novel,Landon,the main guy character of the story is a jock, popular. "in with the in crowd" type of guy. He and his friends would neevr think of talkign to anyone outside of their group, especially the biggest oucast of their town, Jamie Sullivan. Landon gets into some trouble one night and is being punished not by the police but instead by the school. He is cast as the star of the annual school play, which is known for basiclly, losers. He is cast opposite... Jamie Sullivan. He is struggling with the fact thta he is in the play and he is not really getting into his part, so Jamie offers to help him with his lines. They begin to work together after school and he begins to fall in love with her sense of fearlessness and her unseen (by others) beauty. Jamie, unfortunatley, has no interest in Landon at all for unknown reasons but eventually lets her feeling fro him run free. They have an amazing time togethr for the rest of the school year and only need each other to survive. After goign out for a few months, Jamie reveals why she didn't wan tot fall in love with him in the first place. She has leukemia and will most likely not make it past the fall. Landon devotes every waking minute to her and fulfills her one biggest dream in life. He proposes to her, and they get married in the same church as her mother and father did, before her mother died. After being married for a few months, she dies but Landon lives on knowning she is still with him and knowning his life was worth living only having Jamie in it for a short time, than never having her in his life at all.

Summary: Don't Judge A Book By It's Cover and See The Movie First
Review: See, this is where the saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover" literally comes in. Even though mandy moore is on the cover, it's ok. The book still rocks! It's so touching. It starts off a tad bit slow, but once you get about 20 pages in, you just wanna keep going until you finish. Also, If you are going to see the movie, SEE IT FIRST!! DON'T READ THIS UNTIL YOU SEE THE MOVIE! Trust me, I made that little mistake, and was critizing the whole movie. Especially since they put it in 1996. That just annoyed me. I'm not saying don't see the movie, because you should because i loved it almost as much as the book, but the book is much better! It's A must read. I became a Nicholas Sparks Fan and have read many of his books since then. I have read this book over and over and over! So just think about it. Read the first two chapters, and I'm sure you won't be sorry. (Ignore the prologue. Just do, and get started with the actual book!)

Summary: My favorite book!
Review: This book is wonderful, I love it! This book is worth reading more than once! I do see one thing thats not perfect about this book, the man telling the story is 57 looking back on what happened when he was 17. The way he tells it is in a mix of words that the 17 year old and the 57 year old would use. None the less this book deserves 5 stars!

Summary: To me, this is Nicholas Sparks' best novel.....
Review: I've read Nicholas Sparks' highly rated "The Notebook" sometime ago but find the story "common" and not at all enjoyable. Since "The Notebook" is widely known as his best book (but I didn't like it at all), I decided against reading another Sparks' novel, UNTIL recently when I saw the wonderful movie, "A Walk to Remember" which is adapted from a novel by Sparks. The movie was SO good that I just had to give the Sparks novel a try. And happily, I was not dissapointed.The tender love story involving a teenage boy and girl will tug at your heartstrings and make you rethink the true meaning of love. The movie adaptation is great; in fact, I actually loved the movie better than the book but I would highly recommend the book to anyone who loves a good love story and to those who've watched and enjoyed the movie. There're some differences between the book and the movie e.g. in the book, the story's set in the 1950s but in the movie, it's set in modern day. Also, in the movie, Landon Carter's character is portrayed as a popular high school student who hangs out with the in-crowd, gets into trouble with the school authority and comes from a broken home. But in the book, his character is actually studious and homely, and his parents are still together. Nevertheless, I think that if you've watched the movie, you should still pick up the book if only just to find out the (incredible!) depth of Landon's love for Jamie even 40 years after she's gone. This is only revealed in the last 2 paragraphs of the book, but the revelation will touch you to the core and make you cry and marvel at the beauty of true love!!

Summary: A Walk to Remember
Review: Happy, sad, thrilling, and heartfelt are the words that come to mind after reading Nicholas Sparks novel "A Walk to Remember". A book that goes back to 1958 in Beaufort, North Carolina, the story is of how Landon Carter, the popular class president of Beaufort High, and Jaime Sullivan, the shy daughter of the towns Baptist Minister fall in love. Now at first Landon and Jamie hadn't even spoke to one another. When they were younger, Landon and his best buddies would hide behind bushes, and yell obscene names at Hegbert Sullivan, Jamie's father. But one class together could change everything between Landon and Jamie. Now Jamie the real innocent type, always getting good grades, and helping out at the orphanage as much as she could. Landon and Jaimie got to play the lead roles in the school play about an angel that Hegbert had written, but not by Landon's choice. His teacher nearly begged him to play the role because she had no one else to do it. But that was the spark that lit the flame between Jamie and Landon. They became very close after having spent time together so they could rehearse for the
play. After about four months had gone by, Jamie finally confronts Landon and tells him that she was diagnosed with Leukemia about seven months ago. He was devastated and was upset that Jamie hadn't told him sooner. As time went by, Jamie got sicker and sicker. Then Landon finally realized how much he loved Jamie and asked her to marry him and she said "yes", as odd as that seems for only being seventeen. But, they were in
love. Jamie's father, the town's Baptist minister, performed the ceremony, of course. The book leaves you hanging. Did Jamie really die or not? It's all up to you to decide. But the heartfelt, riveting novel is one I would recommend to anyone.
