A Walk To Remember: A Book Review

A Walk To Remember: A Book Review

This was a very touching novel. It is very different than the film and it was one of those books you couldn't help but critiquing by the movie. As for example "why wasn't that in the book, or that in the movie?" I must admit that I rather enjoyed my read and it dare to make me well up tears a few times. Which might I add is rather difficult to accomplish normally.

This is a novel about a high school boy and girl, Landon and Jamie. He dislikes her so much but as he is forced to spend time with her learns there is more to her than the dull matter that meets the eye. She was selfless and kind where as he was immature and self-absorbed. The problem is she has a secret that he just can't seem to figure out. Against her wishes, he falls in love with her and changes from a teenage boy into a caring man. This book shows that Love has no conditions. Even though I don't believe in this kind of love, I find it a good novel because it shows that love doesn't happen in days as in a, for existence, Debbie Macomber book.

This book had somewhat of a Romeo & Juliet feel to it as well. It was a very sweet novel and definitely got me in the feels. Nicholas Sparks is very talented. The problem is in every one of his novels someone dies when the aspect of love is transpired between characters. They all kind of have similarities to others of his work. 

My sister used to read his books but now doesn't because she found out that Mr. Sparks is way Republican. As a part of the Independent party, I would have to close with a statement of mine.

Books aren't biased. They don't say "only white people can read me, only straight people can read me, only democrats can read me." They don't call to any one person. The pages of every book have been turned by people of all shapes, sizes, colors and with their own beliefs. So with that being said. Why do you have to discriminate a good work of art based on that concept within an author? Every book has a two stories, The story within the cover, and a story of where the book has been.
