Summary: A Wonderful, Gripping Story of First Love
Review: This book was amazing. It was a story of a wonderful love between Jaime Sullivan and Landon Carter. You can see how much they loved each other on every page. I would reccomend it to everyone!

Summary: I liked it better when it was called "Love Story."
Review: It had the same plot as "Love Story" complete with the required boy-falls-in-love-with-girl-from-opposite-end-of-the-social-structure and the required resistance of someone's father and, of course, the required terminal illness. But other than different names, times, places and settings, it was the same book. And I'm wondering -- is this allowed? I think most of the readers of this books are too young to remember "Love Story" but now that the movie is out, won't the public catch on and blow the whistle about this obvious rewrite?

Summary: wonderfully beautiful
Review: I just read the book today and finished it. It took me like eight or nine hours. A WALK TO REMEMBER is about this man-Landon Carter-in his late fifties that tells the story about his senior year and that he gets to know this wonderful girl-Jamie Sullivan-that he has known for most of his life and spent part of it making fun of her behind her back. Jamie wasn't an average teenager and most kids from school thought she was strange. But Jamie was really special and if you read the story you'll know why. Throughout the whole story Jamie is nothing but sweet and kind to Landon and everybody else(and I do mean everybody). And Landon finds himself falling in love with her. She changes his life and pretty much makes him a better person. The first few chapters weren't really that exciting but afterwards the story was starting to get interesting. The ending was so moving and sad. It really is a beautiful story. If you saw the movie you'll find that the book is a bit different but its still really good. Its not the best book in the world but its the best that I've read. So buy and read the book.

Summary: Love Story Revisited
Review: If there is a more sappy story out there, I would be surprised. This is definitely not a book for adult readers. Mr. Sparks obviously read that 70's tear-jerker, Love Story, added a dose of the South, sprinkled in a little nostalgia for the 50's and came up with pablum in book form. Yuk!

Summary: This bok is sooo good, even for mature kids!
Review: I'm only 13, but I still read this book. Now, you should know two things about me 1. I hate to read 2. I hate sappy love stories. This struck me as truly amazing because it wasn't the love I liked the best, or the romance. It was the human emotions that Sparks painted onto each page. He drew me a picture of not a super hero, but two people in love. This book may seem sad, but it is actually successful and happy. An emotionally numb boy meets a new world through this girl, and he discovers true life. I may be young, but Sparks reaches out to the world, young and old.

Summary: So Good, But So Sad...
Review: This is a beautiful, romantic, heartwarming story that will sure to leave you crying at the end. But as the author states in his preface - "you have been forewarned". I don't read many fiction books, yet when I do, I tend to stick to favorite authors and Nicholas Sparks is one of my favorites. I was hooked after reading Message In A Bottle - another tearjerker.I am a hopeless romantic and I usually don't read romance books, but this book is superb for all of you other hopeless romantics. This book will tear at your heartstrings and will linger with you for days. I could not put this book down and read it in two days. I was immediately captivated and transported into Landon Carter's world in the late 1950's. Landon does an incredible amount of "growing up" during his seventeenth year of life. The minister's daughter, Jamie Sullivan, helps him to transform from a selfish, self-absorbed "kid", to a young adult on the verge of manhood. Landon conveys traits of tenderness, and compassion, and learns about love and faith and how to forgive, while his love blossoms for Jamie. Jamie is able to bring out all that is pure and good from Landon. It is this innocent love that is all consuming that helps to foster Landon's growth and wisdom. Jamie may be portrayed in the book as a "goodie two-shoes", but her innocence, her unnerving faith and trying to live her life as God wanted us all to live, endears her to the reader. The book may be predictable in parts, but that does not deter from the beauty of this story. In the conclusion, Landon realizes what love is and what it really means to love another by helping your love's dream become a reality. Landon's heart softens when he lets his true nature come through and shine - and shine it does. Epitome of true love - most definitely! With Landon's transformation complete, the reader is completely absorbed with these two main characters. You can't help but fall in love with them. Nicholas Sparks - I congratulate you on another most tender and endearing story. I absolutely love this book and recommend it heartily. This is a must read kind of book that can't help but uplift you as well. Just keep your kleenex handy, because when you're finished with the book, you won't stop crying.

Summary: I Just Couldn't Put It Down!
Review: I hate books, and I hate to read, but when I got this book, I had to read it! Then when I started to read it I loved it. It's the best book I have ever read! It's abut a boy and a girl. The boy is Landon Carter and Jamie Sullivan, the boy is pretty popular and always makes fun of Jamie because she is different and he would make fun of her father the community minister! I was in my room reading and I fell asleep reading it. If you read this book I promise you you will not want to stop! I got into trouble reading it so much! Later on in the book he takes her to the dance because he doesn't have any one to go with, my favorite comment from Jamie was, "I'll go under one condition! as long as you don't fall in love with me!" Later on you'll see if he does or doesn't and then something happens that they can't control! She has a Bible with her and you'll find out what she does with it! This book is funny, romantic, exciting and thrilling ! I'll definately read it again! You better get this book, A Walk To Remember!!

Summary: Just "marvelous"
Review: Dear reader! We read the book "A walk to remember" by Nicholas Sparks in class and it was very good. The book was very easy to understand and we always were able to follow the plot. It is an emotional lovestory in which you can identify with the main characters. The plot is about a teenager relationship between Landon and Jamie. Landon is just a normal boy, but Jamie is not a normal girl... She always carries a bible with her. Jamie is the star for every mother and always friendly to everyone, but she hides a secret. Only her dad knows about the truth. After reading it, you will think about your own way of treating people. Make your own experiences with the (happy?) ending... Just "marvelous"!!!

Summary: Good book for students
Review: Normally I do not like love stories, but this novel is not like others love stories. There is some suspense and humour in it, which makes it interesting. The end is quite sad, but this shows quite well that even when you finally reached happiness you cannot be sure that you stay happy. So the book makes you think about life in general and your life in specific. The long descriptions of some people, houses or so are quite boring I think. Nevertheless, it is a very good book for young people, the best book I ever read in school.
