Summary: Needs More Detail
Review: "A Walk to Remember" was an ok book. The story plot was good but i think it could have been more discriptive. The story was nice and i would recomend it if you like romantic books and you have a good imagination. Nicholas Sparks is a good writer but i think if this book had given more detail that the book would be much better. But over all the book was good.

Summary: Another 5*'s for A Walk to Remember
Review: Landon Carter is a most ordinary teenage boy concerned with girls, his own future, his own image, girls, etc. Jamie Sullivan is a minister's daughter without a mother to guide her through the challenges of her teenage years. She dresses funny and is not one of the mainstream kids. Jamie and Landon are an unlikely pair, but they are friends who grow to love and support one another in an extremely sensivite and well written love story. A Walk to Remember promised to make me laugh and to cry. I did both. If you have not read it, it's a wonderful story.

Summary: You can't put this book down!
Review: What a wonderful story! I was interested in reading this after I viewed the movie. The book was a great improvement over a good movie. Mr. Sparks is a great storyteller and can make you think about "God's plan".

Summary: A walk To Remember
Review: "A Walk To Remember" is a wonderful story of how love has the power to change. It all begins when Landon Carter, the son of a wealthy congressman, runs for the position of class president. Of course due to his popularity he wins. The homecoming dance is the next weekend and all the representatives are supposed to go but Landon is unable to get a date at the last minute. The only option left is church-going Jamie Sullivan the daughter of the towns reverend. She has an unbelievable amount of faith and is always reading her bible she carries around. Reluctantly he asked her and she happily accepted but said "only if you promise not to fall in love with me". At the time Landon didn't think that would be a problem. While at the dance Landons ex-girlfriend Angela came drunk and Jamie found her in the bathroom throwing up all over. Jamie told Landon and they both helped clean it up and then took her home. Landon was thankful to Jamie and realized that most dates wouldn't have helped so he told her he owed her one. In return a couple of months later Jamie asked Landon to take the lead role in the Christmas play. Although he didn't want to he couldn't say no to her overwhelming kindness and because he remembered his promise. This play was very important to her because her father wrote it. He always wrote the Christmas play but this one was different. It was about how his wife,Jamies mother, died during child birth and how he was left to raise her all by himself. In the play her mother turns into an angel which will be played by Jamie herself. So she wants to make it extra special. The night of the play when Jamie came out Landon was stunned by her beauty. This was the moment there love began to flourish. It was like nothing could go wrong. Then she told him "I told you not to fall in love with me" and revealed to Landon that she had a serious illness and didn't have more than a year left to live. This was heartbreaking but only made their love stronger and their time left together more valuable. If you would like to know how this story ends read the romantic love story "A Walk To Remember".

Summary: Yes, it did make me smile, and it did make me cry...
Review: First I thought: Yeah, another remake of "Love Story" - but I was wrong. This is a hundred times better...
I was quite weary, and the book stood untouched on a shelf for a long time before I finally opened it. I was immediately enthralled... I loved the characters and got very attached to them. And as the story went on, I kept asking "Why, why why?" - I was truly grieving for Landon and Jamie.
This is a stunning romance with lots of messages for the heart and soul. If I could have given it 6 stars, I would have. Do read it, I beg you. But have a box of tissues ready.

Summary: Reviewing A Walk to Remember
Review: I liked the book A Walk to Remember. I thought the characters and events in the book were very realistic. Jamie was my favorite character because she was very confident in herself, kind, had a positive outlook on life, she always did what she knew was right even if it wasn't what the "popular" kids would do, and she effected the lives of many people. I liked this book because it talks a lot about faith and how two totally different people went against the odds and fell in love. The thing I disliked most about this book was its ending.

Summary: Promise u wont fall in love with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: The book "Walk to Remember" was a great book. There was alot on emotional and funny parts in this book. The setting was really confusing in the beginning because the main character Landon was forty years old and he was telling a story about his life when he was a senoir in high school. He was telling about how he and this girl first met in drama class and in and out of school activitys. These two restless young adults had alot in common , but they never found out until the first started talking to each other when Landon needed a date for homecoming. Landon tired asking his ex girlfriend, but she didnt want anythign to do with him. So Landon spent one whole night looking in the year book, and the next day at school he asked Jamie she wasnt so popular but Landon was despert to find someone to go with he didnt wanna serve people punch all night. Now one thing about homecoming was Landon had to meet Jamies father the precher of there church. After the dance they were in a drama play together.. And if u really like romantic books this is the one u should read because there are more thigns that happen but you have to read to find out.......... " promise u cant fall in love with me"

Summary: Sweet, But Not Too Sappy
Review: "A Walk to Remember," by Nicholas Sparks is a heart-warming novel about two young people who are completely different, but they convene with the help of faith and fell in love. Together they overcome the negative remarks made by the popular "in" crowd and enjoy a relationship built on the strong foundations of trust and religion. This beautifully written book by Sparks deserves a rating of 8 from a scale of 1-10. Though the plot is sad, it was not enough to leave me in tears. Landom promises the readers that the book will bring smiles and tears, "First you will smile, and then you will cry- don't say you haven't been warned..." If it had made me cry then maybe it would have been a solid 10 rating. Sparks simple created a young man who was all about reputation to a complete romantic. Overall, the chemistry and romance between Jamie and Landon is satisfying. I enjoyed the park where Landon recites a quote from the bible that begins with "Love is patient, love is kind..." That definitely describes the love that Jamie has given him. Sparks diction is old fashion. His language is simple. Landon's tone when he was 57 years old is reminiscent; while the tone of a 17 years old Landon is a hopeless romantic. If you liked "The Notebook" and "Message in a Bottle" then you'll like this book.

Summary: A Walk To Remember
Review: Simply one of the best books I have ever read. It is mainly about a boy and a girl who learn that apperance and popualrity isn't everything, and soon fall in love. Jamie was the preacher's daughter. Everyone in the little town they lived in knew her because of her hard work to be a kind person. She had never been in love, and didn't really get out much. He was a big sport in high school, but coming to homecoming he had no date. He was so desperate he looked at every girl's picture in the last years year book. He called all of them but they were all taken. He called all but one. This girl he didn't call was strange, her dad was the closest person to her. He remembered this girl from 5th grade, having done projects with her. He waited to call her until it was the last resort. They ended up going together, but there were nine words that changed his life. "Whatever you do, don't fall in love with me." Sounds simple, afetr all who could fall in love with Jamie. But after spending time with her and realizing what kind of person she really was it changed the way he was. I think he wouldn't have learned the things he did if it wasn't for Jamie.
The book takes you away into it's world, showing you what true love really is about. I know for me it was impossible to put it down after reading four or five pages.
