Nicholas Sparks took me on a fabulous journey to discover the truth about love in uncommon places. His poise of writing amazes me as he so vividly describes to us the love between Landon and Jamie.Landon Carter was heading into trouble in his senior year. Until the night of the dance, when he doesn't have anyoune to go with, so he invites the reverend's daughter, good girl, Jamie Sullivan. Through a series of events, Landon finds himself in love with her. But, unknown to him, she has a secret that could affect his life forever. This book truly is a walk to remember. I would recommend reading the book before seeing the movie, due to Hollywood, some of Sparks' genius is not in the movie. Read this book and you will not regret it.
