Summary: very similar to Erich Segal's "Love Story"
Review: I have read all of Mr. Sparks' books. However, I must say that I am a bit disappointed about this book. Of course, I know that this story is intended to be a moving story of a young man's first love and how his first experience about love changes his life afterwards. It's quite a smooth read for me, and yes, it really was able to move me to tears in some parts. But as compared to Sparks' previous works, I think that it isn't as poignant a story like in "Notebook" and "Message in a Bottle". I hope that Mr. Sparks' next book can be better.

If you really like this story, I will then recommend you to read a even better version of a story with similar plots. It is Erich Segal's "Love Story" (written in 1988). I guess one reason why I didn't like "A Walk to Remember" as much as the other of Sparks' work is because I think Sparks can't exactly capture the essence of a teenager's heart. I think Sparks is better in writting about the feelings and emotions of an adult.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Walk to Remember
Review: I bought this book for a trip I was taking to San Francisco, thinking that it would help pass the time on a long plane ride. Once I started this book I could not put it down. Nicholas Sparks paints a vivid picture that the reader can't help but be drawn into. An emotional attachment is created between the reader and the characters. I recommed this book to anyone who believes in love, and especially to those who have maybe lost faith in it's power.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An Easy Read but not an Extraordinary Write
Review: I loved Sparks' first two novels and that's the main reason for purchasing this one. I found this book to be a very easy read. However, it was almost too simple. I felt like I was reading something that may be on a middle-school reading list. The ending really leaves you wondering, but it is definitely my least favorite of Sparks' three books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Emotional Entrapment
Review: This story hit the laughter and the tears. I think everyone can relate to knowing people who have been on the outside of popularity looking in. This story showed the ups and downs of being well-known by others and showed that no matter what you statis in life we all have a lot to learn about human emotion and compassion.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Please!
Review: Please, when you are writing a review for a books, do not give the story away! People who are reading the reviews are trying to decide if they'd like to purchase and read the book. Please be careful!

Summary: A Walk to Rememeber Review
Review: A Walk to Remember, by Nicholas Sparks is an excellent book. If your the type of person that has a tough time staying interested in reading this is the book to change all of that around. From the beginning to the end this book keeps you turning the page curious as ever to figure out what is going to happen next. It really keeps you motivated. Another reason for you to read this selection would be that it really can relate to everyone's everyday life, in some way. As always, you have your "typical" popular kids and the one's (one, in this book) that are always being made fun of. I think a lot of the times people are just misunderstood, this happens to be the situation in A Walk to Remember. Whether you are a good reader or not, you could read this story in a short amount of time. It is a very easy read. The book isn't extremely short, but it is not extremely long either. I think that people of all ages could enjoy this book, with in reason. Jr. High kids might even be able to appreciate the lesson being taught in the story. I don't read very much, but I could easily start reading more often if every book I read was as good as this one.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don"t Bother
Review: I think this book could have been written by any high school girl. Boring and predictable. Someone should tell him that a happy ending once in a while isn't a bad thing.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A true to life love story
Review: If you cried when you read "Love Story" or saw the film, this too will bring tears to your eyes. The author takes you to that small town in South Carolina in the late 50s. You can almost see the leaves falling off the trees. A truly remarkable story about young first love that is so innocent and sweet it is almost syrupy. This is a book that young Christian adults can read as even though it is a love story it is definitely G-rated. If you are looking for something racy, then this is not it. But those who have read Sparks know this. This book left me feeling both melachony and mellow.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thought Provoking
Review: The book is a MUST read! I am 13 years old and I enjoyed this book throughly. The love between the two characters is amazing. The way Landon sticks with her through her Cancer shows how much he really loves her. I laughed and I cried more that I have in any other book before.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Story
Review: I read this book in one sitting. It makes you want to keep reading until you discover the conclusion. If you enjoy Nicholas Sparks, this book will not let you down. My favorite Nicohlas Sparks book is The Notebook, but this book comes close. I would definitly reccommend this book.
