Book Reviews of A Walk to Remember
Book Review: A Walk to Forget
Summary: 1 Stars
I had such high hopes. Loved The Notebook, enjoyed The Last Song and was hoping for another Sparks home run. However, this was not meant to be. The beginning of the novella was intriguing but promptly fell flat. The emotional manipulation was way over the top and I felt a utterly cheated. Poorly done Sparks, poorly done.Book Review: A Walk to Remember
Summary: 5 Stars
Not surprisingly, Sparks tells a beautiful story of two teenagers in love, with absolutely nothing in common. At first, the love between Landon Carter and Jamie Sullivan looks as if it won't happen. Landon is outgoing, popular, and has many friends. Whereas, Jamie - she keeps to herself, carries a bible, and dresses plainly. She is a great person with a "big heart."
Landon decides to take a drama class to skid by in school. He is then put into a play and this is when Jamie starts talking more and more to Landon. Landon is embarrassed in front of his friends, and Jamie immediately notices it. She walks away from him and Landon feels bad for hurting her feelings. Time passes on and the two of them start spending more and more time together. Love is inevitable for the two.
Jamie volunteers for on orphanage, and Landon senses his feelings changing for Jamie. He begins to see her in a new light, one with compassion toward her.
In the end, Jamie has a big secret that no one in town knows about, except her father. She decides that her love has became so strong for Landon, that she must share this secret with him, and knows deep in her heart that it will destroy him.
What the two of these characters share between each other is beautifully depicted in this story. It will bring happiness and sadness to you, and if you love to cry at a good story, then this is the story for you. It will also make you look at life in a different attitude.

I have just started reading Nicholas Sparks books in the past couple of months and this one is just as intriging as most of his books. My problem is when I start one I do not want to put it down as I need to know what is going to happen. I will say addicting is what is was! Very Good.Book Review: A Walk to Remember
Summary: 5 Stars
I'll admit, I didn't think I was in the mood for this type of story when I started reading it. And, when the author said that at first I would smile, then I would cry, I was more than determined to prove him wrong. OK, so he was right and I did cry. It was predictable and yet it still got to me. It is the story of a teenager coming of age in the fifties. Yet, in many ways it could be the story of a teenager today. Teenagers always try to fit in with the crowd and please their peers. A Walk to Remember is a quick, but memorable read.Book Review: A Walk to Remember

A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Spark
Have you ever felt how it feels to be in love? The book I read was "A Walk to Remember." The book was about how Landon fell in love with Jaime, a girl no one liked. He didn't want to admit it because he didn't want his friends to make fun of him. But, he didn't care he decided to go out with her, but Jaime rejected Landon's love. It was as if she knew he was going to fall in love with her even if she said not to. But why was Jaime rejecting Landon? Why had she told him not to fall in love with her? Is she scared of loving? Well read the book and find out.
I really loved this book because it was amazing. It was an easy book you can relate to the story and because it talks a lot about how love should really be. I enjoyed this book and I learned a lot about how people act, what they do and what they don't do. I recommend this book to girls and even guys who want to know about love and how to treat others the right way. So read it, if you enjoy love in reality but I tell you something the author said: "First you will smile and then you will cry"
