Rating: Summary: A Walk To Remember Review: Great book... Nicholas Sparks never ceases to amaze me with his ability to write these novels.. I enjoyed every word in this book.. I could not put it down
Rating: Summary: I'd give it zero stars, if this site would let me.. Review: Nicholas Sparks is one of the worst writers I have ever seen. Like his other two lousy books (especially "Message in a Bottle"), this one is contrived, weak, sappy shmaltz. Do yourself a favor and spend your money on something more enjoyable, like a root canal.
Rating: Summary: What an ending! Review: This is one of the best books I have read! It's nice to see someone write about a young woman who is not considered beautiful by society's standard but beautiful because of her heart, love of life and compassion. This is a true love story that has many lessons and teaches us about the beauty of love and how special it is. I couldn't put it down and I cried like a baby.
Rating: Summary: Sparks was Right Review: Just like the phenomenal author Nicholas Sparks warned me, I smiled and I cried while reading this book. It is a true tale of love. The main character Landon Carter cannot help falling in love with strange but kind Jamie Sullivan. Landon's love for Jamie was a true test of time as revealed in the surprise ending. Nicholas Sparks has a great talent, each book of his has captivated me and left me amazed. I srongly recommend this book to anyone who has loved another.
Rating: Summary: Could've, Should've... Review: been good. Instead it was a big disappointment. I cried til my eyes swelled after reading Notebook and Message...not a single tear was shed for this one. It's a sad story but it just didn't do it for me. I agree with the readers who said it's good for a teenager, not for a mature reader. Everything was so one-dimensional, there was nothing there. Maybe if Jamie and Landon's relationship developed faster we would've been more drawn in but in the end it was sad but I didn't really care.
Rating: Summary: A Walk to Forget Review: Ok, if you haven't figured out the formula yet, here it is. Boy meets girl, some conflict exists between them. The conflict is resolved, they fall hopelessly in love. Something happens, one of them dies, the other is left alone (somewhat more reflective, having loved and lost) at the end of the story. The result is tons of tears and a trip up the best-seller lists. After Sparks stole the love-story genre with The Notebook, I thought more could be expected of him. Instead of challenging himself and the reader with the two books that followed (Message in a Bottle and A Walk to Remember), Sparks simply dusted off the old outline, changed the character names and resubmitted to the best-seller lists. Buried within this criticism is a nugget of praise for The Notebook which I felt was tightly crafted and a true love story. Although it is roughly the same size and written by the same author, A Walk to Remember is not in the same class.
Rating: Summary: MARVELOUS! Review: Once again Sparks touched my every emotion. One minute I was crying, and the next I was laughing. At the end of this "marvelous" novel all I wanted to do was hold my husband and declare how lucky I am to have him in my life. I can not wait for a fourth novel from this VERY talented author. Well done, Sparks, well done!
Rating: Summary: One of the best books i've ever read. Review: Never have I read a book as touching as this. This book kept me at the edge of my seat. One can usually predict how a book ends up, but I had know idea with this book, not only at the end, but all through the book. And being 17 y/o myself, it taught me a few things.
Rating: Summary: A Walk To Remember Review: "A Walk To Remember" is a must read. I absolutly loved it . . . Sparks, you are a genious! The love/ and or relationship that both Landon and Jamie had is so awesome. There were even curve balls where I had not expected them. This book has every sort of emotion you ever wanted to feel in a book. Thanx Sparks, keep up the awesome work.
Rating: Summary: wow! Review: I loved this book. I can't stop telling people about it. Mr. Sparks does a great job of describing youth and all it's emotions. I cried and cried and cried. (and many of my friends got it for Christmas! )
