A moderately popular boy Landon Carter lives in a small town which has it's annual Christmas Play every single year. Landon is soon elected Student Body President. As President he must find a date to the homecoming dance. When nobody is left he goes to his last resort: The Pasteur's daughter, goodie two shoes, Jamie Sullivan. When Landon asks her to the dance she agrees on one condition: Landon must not fall in love with her.
I loved this book so much. I read it out of a desire to learn what the song, "Only Hope" meant. The first day that I read it I was slightly bored. But as soon as I got into it I couldn't put it down. I zoomed through it. I loved it. Normally I won't read romance novels or stuff like that but this is the greatest romance novel I have ever opened.
Nicholas Sparks knows how to write. I loved this book. I couldn't put it down after I got into it. I loved it so much. Many other reviewers have said, "A book you won't soon forget" and they couldn't have been more right. It left me thinking. When I picked up this book I was in need of a sob fest. I picked the right book for that.
Jamie Sullivan is the typical goody two shoes. She is constantly picking up critters who have been hit by cars or fallen out of trees, to the vet. She never has something bad to say about anyone. The whole town says, "What a good girl she is" and "Oh that Jamie Sullivan girl is such a sweetheart" I loved Jamie. She is a sweetheart and I really liked reading about her.
Landon Carter is the typical schoolboy back in the fifties. He makes fun of the Pasteur and his daughter. He does OK in school but he's not Harvard material. His father is a Congressman so he doesn't see much of him so his and fathers relationship isn't the greatest. When Jamie entered his life I noticed such a change in Landon I thought it was wonderful.
In closing I rated the book a 5 out of 5. I haven't stopped thinking about this book since I finished it about a week ago. I loved it and I would recommend this to anyone who loves a sob fest and who just needs something to read.
