Description: There was a time when the world was sweeter....when the women in Beaufort, North Carolina, wore dresses, and the men donned hats.... Every April, when the wind smells of both the sea and lilacs, Landon Carter remembers 1958, his last year at Beaufort High. Landon had dated a girl or two, and even once sworn that he'd been in love. Certainly the last person he thought he'd fall for was Jamie, the shy, almost ethereal daughter of the town's Baptist minister....Jamie, who was destined to show him the depths of the human heart-and the joy and pain of living. The inspiration for this novel came from Nicholas Sparks's sister: her life and her courage. From the internationally bestselling author Nicholas Sparks, comes his most moving story yet....

Hello.

I am reviewing A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks. I will do my best to give the most honest review that I possibly can on this book. Sparks has become quite popular so I am sure that can hinder some people when reviewing. Any quotes that may follow are from the text and not my own words.

We have all encountered that one person in life that tends to stick out in every aspect of society. They don't really fit in anywhere. They tend to permanently rest outside of the norm. The funny thing is that usually they don't care. Sparks did a fantastic job writing about such a person and the way that society tends to view them.

The characters were so fantastically written that I grew to feel like I knew them personally. It is obvious that Sparks's love for his sister was on every page. Jaime was someone that I found myself wanting to talk to. She was not afraid to be different and refused to be anything other herself. Her kindness was often ridiculed but she never let it deter her. I can see why Sparks felt that he needed to write this story.  He wanted the world to love Jaime the way that he loved his sister.

This is a difficult book to review because I don't want to give away more of the story than the description already has yet I want to share every aspect of it.  This is a book full of love, miracles, joy, and great sadness. I am rating this book Five Blue Books because it is such a beautifully written story that I can't find any fault with it.
