OMG!!! Seriously, this book was amazing. I never thought I would love it the way I did, I mean, I knew I would like it, but not that I would be this crazy about it.

His beginnings are always very slow , so until now I never gave more than 4 stars to any of his books. But that was not the case at all with this one.I loved every page of it.

I never thought I would love it the way I did, I mean, I knew I would like it, but not that I would be this crazy about it.

My problem with other Sparks novels:
His beginnings are always very slow , so until now I never gave more than 4 stars to any of his books. But that was not the case at all with this one.I loved every page of it. I never was dissatisfied at all, actually I couldn't stop thinking about the book. If you liked A Walk to Remember and The Notebook, you will love this one because for sure as it has the same style, while most Sparks' other books are of a different sort.

The characters:
Were should I start? Ronnie was a great character.To watch her grow and mature through the whole book was great, I loved to see how she went from a confused and rebel teenager to a full-grown young woman. She managed to end up satisfied with her life and proud for what she accomplished.
Jonah, her younger brother, was the sweetest kid ever. I couldn't get enough of him. Every time he said 'awesooome' I just wanted to hug him forever,LOL.
And Will... well, he is the boy you would love to take home and introduce to your parents, the kind of guy that once you get him you would never wanna set him free. I completely adored him. Every time he appeared and said something I melted. My heart was his from page one.
And Steve, Oh, Steve. I loved him since page 1. I couldn't have asked for a better father figure for the kids. He was so patient and so what Ronnie needed. I was just so happy to see how he finally managed to get in good terms with his children again. But the best thing about this book was the process, to see how both of them started trusting and caring for their father once more.

The book:
I just loved how everything developed. Everything connected just right at the end. And what an ending. I love books with a HEA. Although this book will make you burst into tears like a cry-baby, SO BE READY and have some tissues at hand. seriously, I spent the last 100 pages crying and crying and CRYING. I'm not kidding with the tissues, you will really NEED them. This book was so heartbreaking at times that I felt my heart breaking into a million pieces. It touched me in ways I never thought a book could. I just loved this book and would strongly recommend it. =)(less)

I'm not really a Nicholas Sparks fan. The Notebook was required reading for one of my english classes in high school, and I thought it was fantastic! For some reason, I just haven't had that much desire to pick any of his other novels. I think that The Last Song would be an excellent book for fans of The Notebook.

I wanted to read The Last Song because I was seeing the movie with my sister and I usually prefer to read the book before I see the movie. Although I hated that they casted Miley as Ron...more

(Is it just me or Milers really look stoned here*kidding*)

Amazing book, it's kind of emotional and depressing in the end but still it has a happy ending. Ronnie was like a character that I can personally relate to and the dialogues are just humorous. It's kinda like predictable but all in all it's really meaningful and highly recommended to all Sparks fans.

I've read a few Sparks books and for the most part, I’ve really enjoyed them from beginning to end. However, The Last Song took me quite a while to get into, and I was very close to throwing in the towel and giving up.

To be honest, I realized I went into reading it with a bad attitude. *is ashamed* I'll explain my resistance... two words... one person... Miley Cyrus. Not a huge fan of hers, so when I started this book, her image and voice resonated in my brain and it matched perfectly with Ro...more

Veronica "Ronnie" Miller won't be eighteen until the end of the summer, so she has to follow her mom's rules and is off with her younger brother, Jonah, to spend the summer with her dad in a North Carolina beach town. Ronnie hasn't talked to her dad in over three years. He left New York City and their family and moved back to his hometown. Ronnie is rebellious and having been arrested for shoplifting back home, a quiet summer in North Carolina might be the best thing for her. At least that's what her mother thinks.

Ronnie arrives with the intention of ignoring her dad. On her first night there she wanders the beach and meets a girl, Blaze, who seems okay. But Blaze is addicted to Marcus, and Marcus is bad news. And Marcus is interested in Ronnie. Ronnie can tell Marcus is trouble and tries to avoid him. But the triangle will ultimately create problems.

On a brighter note, Jonah is totally content in North Carolina and with spending time with his father. He has no desire to return to New York City. Jonah has joined his father in creating a replacement stained glass window for a church that burned in town.

As the summer unfolds, Ronnie falls in love with a local boy, Will. She discovers the wonders of Loggerhead turtles. And she learns to trust her father all over again. As the summer comes to a close, more than one tragedy occurs, and Ronnie must face some hard truths in her life.

I have to admit that it's been a while since I truly loved one of Mr. Sparks' novels. Don't get me wrong, I do adore his work. But it's been ages since I sat down with one of his books and found myself with tears in my eyes. This was one of those rare stories. With about forty pages to go in the novel, I found myself with wet eyes and the sniffles.

THE LAST SONG is already in movie post production starring Miley Cyrus as the rebellious Ronnie. With the main character being a teenager, and with subplots of rebellion and first love, THE LAST SONG is a novel that will appeal to a wide audience: teens and adults alike. With the addition of Miley in the title role when the movie is released, THE LAST SONG will find even wider circulation.

As with all of Mr. Sparks' books, expect tears, joy, love, and ultimately redemption and forgiveness for many of the characters. The wonderful characters in THE LAST SONG will stay with you long after the final page is turned.(less)

I find this is a coming of age novel. And how it appealed to younger generations (cough cough, no I am not denying that I am getting older), but it did not appeals to me much.

I am awarding this book a 3-star because I found that the ending is although predictable, but satisfying. The start of the book till the middle, for me is all about a teenager's life. What I cherished most was when Ronnie's moments with her dad and her brother. It was heartwarming and saddening most of the time.

The only other book i ever read and loved was his "A Walk To Remember". Though i greatly enjoyed Jamie Sullivan and Landon Carter, i thought that would be the last time i picked up one of Sparks' books. To my surprise, this book caught my interest despite my dislike of the actress who portrayed Ronnie in the movie, Miley Cyrus. I think this book interested me mainly because, as i read the back description, i was able to relate to Ronnie. My parents got into a huge fight and eventually separated back during high school and then my dad passed away of cancer during college. Although i didn't rebel as much as Ronnie did in this book, i admit i had my share of disappointments and resentments before directed towards my parents, particularly towards my dad.

Following Ronnie was like going back through time. I was a confused 16 year old again, trying to get a hold of myself. But as i sailed through this book, i realized and understood a lot of things i didn't back then. I think what especially helped was the change in narration throughout the book, that was what i liked best. Not only was i able to sympathize and dive into Ronnie's head, but i was also able to get inside the head of little Jonah, Will and most especially her dad, Steve.

When i got into the part when her dad was dying due to cancer... i'll admit, i CRIED, i BAWLED my heart out. Was teleported again back to those hospital days when my dad was getting chemotherapy and radiation..and eventually the funeral. I fully understood how Ronnie must've felt when she realized her dad had terminal cancer. I felt her grief. I love my dad so much despite everything and i praise God i was able to make more memories with him before he left.

All in all, this book is now under my list of favorites. I like it not because of Ronnie's relationship with Will, but mainly because of her relationship with her dad. And i do admit, i've developed a soft spot for Ronnie's cute lil bro, Jonah!

If you ever get the opportunity and if you're the type who doesn't mind these kind of plots, pick this book up! I'm actually scouring for another copy of this myself, another edition that doesn't have Miley Cyrus on the cover. hehe

Oh did i mention it's my dad's birthday today? Yep it is, he was born on May 01, 1948. It's been 2 years now since he passed away. haha i'm sorry, don't mind me, i just wanna throw that in. Happy reading fellow goodreaders!

I hate to admit it, but I think my judgment of The Last Song may have been influenced by Miley Cyrus being cast in the movie. I have also had some disappointment in many of Nicholas Sparks’ novels. They all have the same plot: Two people fall in love, someone dies, and then it ends. Though The Last Song was not my favorite book, it wasn’t my least favorite either.

First of all you should excuse me in advance since this is only the first ever review that I write not only for a book but for well whatever...and well also apart from that it's the first book I've read since at least ten years ago...and that's not all hehe,until now I was used to reading a different style of books...

Having a first view of the book I could tell that probably I don't belong to the "target group" that this novel is more suitable for...the plot and well Nicholas Sparks previous ones indicated that it's mostly women and especially young ages one that will most likely to be fond of reading it... It looked to have all those things inside that men are making fun of women reading...romance...nice landscaping...a young girl falling in love...and well too many thrilling moments expected that could cause many tears like always (judging by his movies at least...never had the chance to have a book of him in the past)
So starting reading it well it confirmed that his style is most like expected but somehow it was really really interesting...having each chapter based in each character's prespective gave me a total view of how everybody was thinking making it hard to turn off the e-book only when I really had no choice because I should deal with some other things of major importance :)
It surely contains drama,but much more than just that...there is no doubt that he knows how to write...has the ability of describing everything with such a detail that actually transfers you at the scene of the place,he has really nice dialogues authentic ones...it is certain that Sparks in fact studied the characters really well...Jonah,Ronnie,Will,Steve are talking with everyone having his/her own style really based to the age to the livings of every person...very smart lines,specially the ones were the young couple uses to tease each other probably the most amusing ones and perhaps a source of inspiration of every young one wants to flirt with someone in a nice way without provoking at all...just words to cause the other one to smile,not provoking ones...teaching the readers how to approach the person of the opposite sex in a sweet and innocent way :)
On the other hand of course this book has a bit of censorship...no swearing and cursing...by none of the characters though there are also some "bad boys" in the story that it's impossible not to have "non allowed" words in their vocabulary...no alcohol or drug scenes...it's like some american teen series which avoid to show certain things in order not to shock their audience...but ok in a way it's respectful
About the story well it's really nice to promote the idea of real love not only between a guy and a girl but the most fundemental one which is between a parent and a child and vice versa...how this love can grow...what it really means sacrificing things that you like in order to please the one you love... Sparks has the majestic charisma of dealing with things that really bothered each one of us...not knowing how to solve a problem when occuring...calculating any possible consequence of our actions...it's like he knows that every reader had to actually deal with a similar issue earlier in his/her life...
In my opinion the book reaches its peak when finally the turtle "phenomenon" takes place...after that it seems that everything is happening too fast...days pass by one after another...weeks..months...and though it still remains really fascinating to read it creates like a wish that it should more slowly so we should have had the chance to read even more...it ended really quickly so that's the main reason that I put 4 instead of 5 starts...I wanted more...hehe :)
Now I know how the ideal father looks like..the ideal daughter...the ideal brother or sister...boyfriend...girlfriend...friends...perhaps the only type of person that you cannot learn from how to be in this novel is mother...but ok it's mostly cause there aren't involved so much in the story...so in case you belong to any of those types...and I am sure everyone of us has at least a friend or and definitely has as well a girlfriend and a boyfriend...so we can all learn what to do...to picture ourselves being one of Last Song's characters..and hopefully not Marcus...
Hmmm the conclusion of the whole book...I should carry on reading books and I wonder what made me stop...novels like this motivate me for sure to start finding another one as well...and well with a bit of luck to make a better review next time... :p
Last by not least I would like to thank the person who made me deal with books as well and invited me also to join "Goodreads" and opened my eyes in many ways to reconsider things and how life should be...do everything based on your love to others..to your beloved and the winner will be you :)(less)

You sense right away that there's something vital to the story missing that you only discover later on.

I dont mean it any other way simply that Sparks' books had always been easy to follow type - predictable, true... but always heart-warming.

So I grabbed a book by Nicholas Sparks knowing that its going to be an easy read. I dont mean it any other way simply that Sparks' books had always been easy to follow type - predictable, true... but always heart-warming.

Overview: Seventeen year old Veronica "Ronnie" Miller's life was turned upside-down when her parents divorced and her father moved from New York City to Wilmington, North Carolina. Three years later, she remains angry and alienated from her parents, especially her father...until her mother decides it would be in everyone's best interest if she spent the summer in Wilmington with him. Ronnie's father, a former concert pianist and teacher, is living a quiet life in the beach town, immersed in creating a work of art that will become the centerpiece of a local church.
The tale that unfolds is an unforgettable story of love on many levels—first love, love between parents and children — that demonstrates, as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that love can break our hearts...and heal them.

My opinion: This book is exactly what I expected. From the first few pages, I already know how this is going to end.I dont actually like Ronnie's character at first (maybe that's because I am a daddy's girl). I hated how she treats her father, although understandably so... that's because she blames him for ruining their family. But as she evolved in the story and get to know her better, I started liking her. And although this book is exactly how I predicted it to be... and I didn't mean it in a bad way... it still filled me with loads of emotions in the end (knowing hoe melodramatic I can be :p). I know this story will be all about finding true love, seeking forgiveness, desire for second chances to make things right... and realization to never give up hope. I read so fast during the first few chapters only to be unable to finish it at once. I had to stop many times towards the end of the novel to wipe my tears. I was touched by this book, not mainly by Ronnie and Will's love story though... but by Ronnie and Steve's story of a great love shared between father and daughter. It left me with a feeling of gratitude to life - for all the things I have, for the things I lost... and for granting me a family others can only wish for.(less)

The story was beautifully written, heart-wrenching, tear jerker and seriously addictive.

Ronnie, a rebellious girl, got mad at her father because of her parents’ divorce. When she found out that her mom would want her and her brother Jonah to spend the summer holidays with her dad, she had known that it would be the worst summer ever, for she hated her father of what he had done. But as the day passed, she figured out many things she never expected to happen to her and to other people surround her. She had love, shared love, received love and those things had changed her perspective and behavior towards everything in life.

Steve, a loving father who cared about his children so deeply, his love was unconditional. No matter what had happened to him, his love never faded. I admire Steve’s character so much, that he had been such a wise man, a great parent, a faithful husband and absolutely a wonderful person.

I had to stop reading this book in some parts, because I started tearing. Though I had known what was going to come, still I couldn’t help my tears from falling. The story about Steve and Ronnie touched me in a way. Steve had been so supportive even in his lowest condition. That was surely the thing that everyone loved about him. He was the person everyone would like to grow to be and to have someone in life like him, would be such a blessing. I love the letters he wrote to Ronnie, they were beautiful.

A part of Steve and Ronnie’s conversation I loved so much, which shows the love that Steve had…

“Do you remember when you were little?” he asked, suddenly serious. “You used to watch me playing the piano for hours. One day, I found you sitting at the keyboard playing a melody you had heard me play. You were only four years old. You always had so much talent.”

“I remember,” she said.

“I want you to know something,” her dad said, gripping her hand with surprising force. “No matter how bright your star became, I never cared about the music half as much as I cared about you as a daughter… I want you to know that.”

At first she is furious and doesn’t want to spend any time with her dad or be there really at all. Even though she knows her Dad loves it she tells him she doesn’t even want to look at a piano as she quit playing after the divorce since her Dad was her teacher (and one at Julliard) and though she was great at it to the point that Julliard promised to take her when the time came, she stopped playing as she associated it with the Dad who abandoned her and her family so she thought. He even builds a wall to cover it for her. When leaving a volleyball game she goes to check out she runs into a guy who gets her soda spilled all over her. Angrily she stomps off to the pier where she runs into a girl who gets her drink spilled all over her again. Her name’s Blaze who has a group of friends whom she doesn’t like or feel safe around especially Marcus who to be frank gives her the creeps as she thinks he’s pretty much crazy. Blaze’s boyfriend Marcus and his friends do a show on the pier that involves fireballs. When conflict stirs between Marcus and his friends and the guy who spilled soda on her’s friend she intervenes and stops it saving a crying kid who she returns to his mother. Marcus’ group and Blaze part and Ronnie follows only to be busted on by an officer who escorts her home by what she assumes is request by her father. Outside their house she finds an endangered turtle’s nest which she sleeps outside to protect and calls the aquarium to come cage, properly protect and such. The next day a person from the aquarium comes, a volunteer actually, who just so happens to turn out to be the guy who spilled soda on her. His name is Will, he promises to get call the aquarium to come by and set up a cage, and takes in interest in Ronnie. At a party Marcus hits on Ronnie and makes it appear as if she did on him making Blaze so jealous that the next day she places merchandise from the music store inside her bag which Ronnie doesn’t realize until the security alarm goes off when she leaves the store after an infuriated Blaze does. Ronnie has a history of shoplifting which she admitted to in court; however, saying that the last time which she got sent to court for was a complete accident. They promised not to leave anything on her record so long as it never happened again, and so this is very much not good and the owner presses charges. Blaze won’t admit to putting the things in Ronnie’s bags either. Over the summer Ronnie and Will spend lots of time together falling in love as they walk the beach, fish, visit one another’s homes though Will’s Mother doesn’t approve of Ronnie, and watch the turtle nest which eventually gets a cage put on after she went and yelled at Will who swore he called them and that they are coming soon. Ronnie also spends time with her Dad as she has forgiven him and loves him very much, and so do he and her lil brother Jonah spending a lot of their time on a stain-glass window her Dad’s making for the church that burned down. The church belongs to a Pastor that’s a good friend of his, his first piano teacher. At Will’s sister’s wedding Marcus appears and when he and Will are fighting unpegs a tent that sends it tumbling down and ice sculptures crashing down getting a couple people injured and all in all ruining her wedding. Ronnie receiving the blame leaves in tears promising never to see Will again.
The character’s relationships are neatly built and the different POVs the story is from throughout helps in development of these strong characters. There’s much suspense and mystery as well added to this romance novel. The various complications and conflict are intertwined well into the plot.
Will’s newlywed sister Megan convinces Ronnie to go the volleyball tournament to cheer her brother on. She assures her she knows all about the trouble Marcus causes and that she doesn’t blame Ronnie and that she didn’t ruin her wedding.

Will and Ronnie help Jonah in finishing the stain-glass window for her father. Will tells Ronnie the truth about why Marcus keeps taunting him about a bottle rocket for he had kept his friend’s secret about the fact that his bottle rocket had caused the fire that burned down the church as he felt he owed him for pulling him, his mother, and died from impact little brother from their car when it fell off the bridge and into the river that day so long ago. Ronnie leaves him not wanting to see him again. Blaze and her mother, who had kicked her out making Blaze have to deal with Marcus’ crap as it was her only place to stay though Ronnie offered for her to stay at her house, make-up, and Blaze no longer hangs with that group. She apologizes to Ronnie and tells the judges the truth about her putting CDs in the bag getting the charges dropped for Ronnie. Blaze who likes to be called her real name Galadriel now wasn’t pressed charges against as she gave them information about the arson crime with the church. She told them the truth that Marcus had lit fire to the church. It wasn’t Will’s friend’s bottle rocket after all, Marcus just wanted to make it appear so. Marcus was the real cause to the church being destroyed and Pastor Harris burned, and Marcus had burnt other establishments as well. He is sent to prison.

They talk and she apologizes, they make-up, but they part their separate ways. She off to Julliard and him back to the college his mother wanted him to attend. Months of grief she spends practicing on the piano before college starts up for her. Then one day while practicing Will calls and tells her he is in New York then she turns around as he is there right behind her. He tells her that he got transferred to the school he always wanted to go to Columbia in NY. They will be together now, in love and together.

A heart-wrenching story I was totally shocked about her father’s incurable cancer. I balled my eyes out and was saddened by his loss. I was happily surprised though about the charges being dropped and that Marcus was the true cause to the fire and justice was served as he was imprisoned. I was glad Galadriel got herself together, too. I was once more distressed that Will and Ronnie had to go their separate ways, but was totally surprised and overjoyed that he got to transfer to Columbia and they get their happily ever after.

I wasn't really expecting to like this book so much, but I did. It was an easy read and a page turner. It had a good mix of romance, family, self-discovery, suspense, etc. The book was WAY better than the movie. The movie was a complete disappointment. It would've been better without Miley Cyrus as the lead. She cannot act. I thought I would be okay with her acting but it was worse than I thought. What is it with her un-removable shoulder pads? It seemed like her shoulders were always trying to...more

Title:The Last Song
Author:Nicholas Sparks
20 word summary:
Ronnie is forced to visit her dad and learns to love and forgive herself and others too, especially her parents.
Passage
Page:309-310
“It’s going to end, you know,” said a voice behind her.
Absorbed in her own thoughts, she hadn’t heard Ashley approach, but she recognized her voice.
“Excuse me?” Warily, she turned to face the blonde.
“I mean, I’m glad Will invited you to the wedding. You should have your fun now because it’s not going to last. He leaves in a couple of weeks. Have you thought about that yet?”
Ronnie appraised her. “I don’t see how it’s any of your business.”
“Even if you two make plans to see each other, do you honestly think Will’s mom is ever going to accept you?” Ashley went on. “Megan was engaged twice before this, and her mom ran both of them off. And she’s going to do the same to you whether you like it or not. But even if she doesn’t, you’re leaving and he’s leaving and it’s not going to last.”
Ronnie tensed, hating Ashley for giving voice to her darkest thoughts. Still, she was getting tired of this girl, and she had just about reached her limit.
“Hey, Ashley,” she said, sidling up closer to her, “I’m going to tell you something, okay? And I want you to pay attention, so I’m going to be perfectly clear.” She took another step forward, until their faces were almost touching. “I’m getting sick and tired of listening to your crap, so if you ever try to talk to me again, I’m going to punch those bleached teeth right out of your mouth. Got it?”
Something in her face must have convinced Ashley that Ronnie was serious, because she turned quickly without another word and retreated to the safety of the tent.

I picked this passage:
I picked this passage because I thought it was hilarious and I wish I had that kind of courage to say those kind of things of course if I were in Ronnie's shoes I would probably say something very similar!!! But I honestly wished they had put this in the movie because I would have laughed out loud and probably anyone who was sitting next to me but still I still wish they had put that in the movie it would have made the movie a lot better!!!!

However, Nicholas Sparks made me change my opinion and convinced me to love the book.

The Last Song is my favourite book now because it was enjoyable, funny and emotional book. It caught my eyes and my heart to complete it and to know what will happen to Will, Ronnie and her father Steve.

In many parts I felt sad so I cried. In another part, I felt happy. However, in other parts I felt anger with Ronnie, Blaze and Marcus.

I will talk briefly about The Last Song. Firstly, the book was more interesting and wonderful than the movie. It was about teenage girl that is called Ronnie ( Veronica) life. She lived with her family in New York until her parents got divorced so her father moved to Wilmington. Consequently, she hates her father because she thinks that he left her and her family. After that, her mother decides to let Ronnie and her brother Jonah spend the summer with their father for one reason that you will know if you read the book.

At the beginning of the summer, Ronnie communicates with her father in a bad way but at the end they get closer for many reasons you will know if you read the book. Her father Steve was a former concert pianist and teacher who lives in the beach town. Also, in the summer, Ronnie fall in love and get through every thing that can break the love relationship. Ronnie also get through many problems that teaches her and make her responsible and mature.

In this book, you will see when Ronnie judges other people even before she really knows them so she will definitely understand them in a wrong way. At the end she regrets her attitude. In addition, you will find all kinds of relationships-the relationships between lovers,parents and children and between friends. That demonstrations the many ways that relationships can break our hearts and heal them.

The Last Song is more than an interesting story . It contains important things that we should learn them such as forgiveness.

At the end of the review, I want to share with you my favourite quote from The Last Song that is " you have to love something before you can hate it."

I think you should read The Last Song to have the same feeling l had when I finished the book with big smile. However, I felt sad because I did not want to finish it because I got involved in the story not only with my mind but also with my heart. This book is appropriate to all ages. (less)

Veronica 'Ronnie' has been forced to spend the summer with her father, which she hasn't spoken to her three years, because she believes he walked out on the family when her parents divorced. While her little brother is enjoying the time with his father that he hasn't seen for ages, Ronnie is avoiding him, which leads to her mixing with the wrong crowd and eventually causing unintentional trouble. She eventually finds her path as she meets Will. So when tragedy strikes, is that when the family re...more

Have you ever had a secret that was so big, and yet you couldn't share it with anyone? In The Last Song, this is exactly the predicament that some of the main characters face. The book is filled with themes of love, happiness, and summer memories made, but also with sadness, loss, and secrets.

In The Last Song, this is exactly the predicament that some of the main characters face. The book is filled with themes of love, happiness, and summer memories made, but also with sadness, loss, and secrets.
17-year-old Victoria Miller (Ronnie for short), who is a rebellious teenager, is constantly fighting with her mom and sometimes her annoying little brother. She hasn't spoken a word to her father, Steve, in three years, after he left her and her little brother to pursue his music career. In fact, he never returned home, even after his career was over. Ronnie and her brother Jonah, age ten, are shipped off to their dad's for the summer. The excuse they are given is that her dad wants to spend some time with them since he hasn't seen them in well, three years. Ronnie hates this idea, and arrives at her father's house with a hateful attitude, ready for the most boring summer of her life.
She soon meets Blaze, another rebellious teen much like her, and Will Blakeley, a rich native in the area. These two acquaintances will determine the path that she takes during her summer. One, the same path she's been on, the rebellious one; the other, a new life, a chance to start over. We follow Ronnie, Will, Blaze, and her father throughout the story. We see Ronnie grow from the person she once was to the person she was meant to be, and the secrets in the book slowly begin to unravel.
This was an overall great book. Nicholas Sparks, the author, has an interesting way of pulling you into the story. To be honest, when I first heard about his books, I had no interest in reading them. But I decided to give this one a chance, and I am glad I did. The characters' emotions in this book are so real, and easily relatable. The plot keeps you wanting to continue turning the pages, and to find out what happens next. Grammatically speaking, his writing is different than most authors. He is not very formal at all, and writes in a way that we talk every day. I loved this, but I can see how some may find it annoying.
Nicholas Sparks has written many other books, including A Walk to Remember, Message in a Bottle, and The Notebook. I would definitely recommend this to my friends. I would caution, however, that there are a few swear words, and the book is very adult themed, with topics of death. It doesn't contain anything too bad, it just can get mature at times. It defintely appeals more to the girls, but I think it can also relate to the guys, as some of the chapters are told from a guy's perspective. Overall, it is a great book and definitely worth reading again! I give this a definite four out of five stars.(less)

A few friends had read it as well and I can safely say that The Last Song, even after reading it months ago, is still a topic of discussion for us.

What I liked about this book was the father-daughter relationship. Jonah was very cute, just like all brothers are. I find Nicholas Sparks' books closer to reality than any other author's. He has this knack of portraying relationships very well. And his books make you cry, even this one did. I feel that is what makes them realistic.

I find Nicholas Sparks' books closer to reality than any other author's. He has this knack of portraying relationships very well. And his books make you cry, even this one did. I feel that is what makes them realistic. Because according to me, in real life you hardly see people who live "happily ever after". There is some kind of grief or loss in everybody's life. Lucky are those who have not seen a death in their family or haven't grieved for some kind of loss in their life.
Most importantly, I like the fact that people in his books have better things to do other than to get into a bed, the way it is in most of the romantic novels. I like the way his main protagonists are actually in "love", not just physically. I find romantic novels boring and uninteresting. I have tried reading plenty of them in the past and have given up or ended up hating them. But I can always read a Sparks' book, because in some way I can relate to the characters very easily, I can empathise with what is happening in his books.

One thing that I found little silly, which happens to be the reason why I did not give the book 5 stars is -

By the time I'd gotten around to this book I had pretty much formulated my conclusion that nothing good could EVER come from a Nicholas Sparks book. With it's southern setting and usual cast of mostly laid back characters it seemed like this book would be no different, but that was before I met the main character Ronnie. Ronnie is explosive character; throughout out the book she's constantly screaming, yelling, fighting, stirring up all sorts of drama. Ronnie is rude, obnoxious, and insensitive....more

About Nicholas Sparks

As a child, Nicholas Sparks lived in Minnesota, Los Angeles, and Grand Island, Nebraska, finally settling in Fair Oaks, California at the age of eight.

His father was a professor, his mother a homemaker, then optometrist's assistant. He lived in Fair Oaks through high school, graduated valedictorian in 1984, and received a full track scholarship to the University of Notre Dame.

After breaking the Notre Dame school record as part of a relay team in 1985 as a freshman (a record which still stands), he was injured and spent the summer recovering. During that summer, he wrote his first novel, though it was never published. He majored in Business Finance and graduated with high honors in 1988.

He and his wife Catherine, who met on spring break in 1988, were married in July, 1989. While living in Sacramento, he wrote his second novel that same year, though again, it wasn't published. He worked a variety of jobs over the next three years, including real estate appraisal, waiting tables, selling dental products by phone, and started his own small manufacturing business which struggled from the beginning. In 1990, he collaborated on a book with Billy Mills, the Olympic Gold Medalist and it was published by Feather Publishing before later being picked up by Random House. (It was recently re-issued by Hay House Books.) Though it received scant publicity, sales topped 50,000 copies in the first year of release.

He began selling pharmaceuticals and moved from Sacramento, California to North Carolina in 1992. In 1994, at the age of 28, he wrote The Notebook over a period of six months. In October, 1995, rights to The Notebook were sold to Warner Books. It was published in October, 1996, and he followed that with Message in a Bottle (1998), A Walk to Remember (1999), The Rescue (2000), A Bend in the Road (2001), and Nights in Rodanthe (2002), The Guardian (2003), The Wedding (2003), Three Weeks with my Brother (2004), True Believer (2005) and At First Sight (2005) all with Warner Books. All were domestic and international best sellers and were translated into more than 35 languages. The movie version of Message in a Bottle was released in 1999, A Walk to Remember was released in 2002, and The Notebook was released in 2004. The average domestic box office gross per film was $56 million -- with another $100 million in DVD sales -- making the novels by Nicholas Sparks one of the most successful franchises in Hollywood.

The film rights to Nights in Rodanthe, True Believer and At First Sight have been sold, and Nicholas Sparks has written the screenplay for The Guardian, though he has not offered it for sale at this point.

He now has five children: Miles, Ryan, Landon, Lexie, and Savannah. He lives in North Carolina with his wife and children.

His ancestry is German, Czech, English, and Irish, he's 5'10" and weighs 180 lbs. He is an avid athlete who runs daily, lifts weights regularly, and competes in Tae Kwon Do. He attends church regularly and reads approximately 125 books a year. He contributes to a variety of local and national charities, and is a major contributor to the Creative Writing Program (MFA) at the University of Notre Dame, where he provides scholarships, internships, and a fellowship annually.(less)
