A Rememberance of True Love

The book A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks was published in 1999. This book is narrated by Landon Carter, 57 year old man of Beaufort, North Carolina. It is set in a period of his life that he learned about himself and the people he is around the most. He tells about his participation in the school play with a religious girl, Jamie, that Landon was known for making fun of and teasing. But as they practice for the Christmas play and run lines with each other, he slowly begins to realize that all of these years he had been wrong about her.

        This book is a wonderful book; it is a love story that is also a life lesson for each reader. It teaches you to look at the person in side and not to judge people on how they look or what they do. It follows the old saying, “Never Judge a person till you have walked a mile in their shoes.” The characters are very realistic and the book is well written. I would recommend this book to both teenagers and adults. It is an eye opening, tear-jerking situation between love and death. Once you have read this book you will never forget it.  It is an amazing book that I think everybody should read at least once in their life.
