Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Melanie: Doesn't sound too interesting to me. :/ Sowey! But I Luhvd the Last Song too! :D Still haven't had a chance to see the movie. My "sister" said that it was a waste of time, but I still want to see it.


message 102: by Melanie (new)

Melanie Zakiya, I love all of Nicholas Spark's books and I am really enjoying this one.

I think the best thing about the movie was Liam Hemsworth. lol

I love the books and all the Nicholas Sparks movies. I think the movie was cute and adorable. It actually followed the book fairly closely.


message 104: by Melanie (new)

Melanie Yes it did and I think the casting of actor/actresses was very well done.

I know that he wrote the role of Ronnie for Miley Cyrus but I think the other actors fitting the description of the characters very well.


message 105: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) Well I have only seen the movie for A walk to Remember, but I've only read The Last Song. So I still have a lot of catching up to do hah :)


message 106: by Melanie (new)

Melanie Ive read quite a few of his books now and seen a few of the movies based on his book (Dear John, The Last Song, A Walk to Remember, Message in a Bottle, the Notebook) and think they pretty much always cast wonderfully.

I can't wait for the movie version of The Lucky One, I haven't read that book yet.


message 107: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) I really wanted to read/see Dear John, too, but my mom never took me to see it. And I never bought it.


message 108: by Melanie (new)

Melanie It is a very good book and movie Zakiya but bare in mind the movie ends very differently to the book so 2 totally different endings.

I read the book first so didn't like the ending of the movie. Its a bit like what they did to My Sister's Keeper, they changed the endings on the movie so it didn't match the book.


message 109: by Melanie (new)

Melanie Im reading Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult now and I am totally sucked into it.

I watched Dear John but haven't read the book yet. I keep having it on my list of things to do. Will have to start pushing it up my list. I keep pushing it but I never get around to reading it. I have so many books on my list though and the unfortunate part is that I am in a major reading rut. I have not yet finished 1 (yes 1) book this month. It is very pathetic for me.


message 111: by Melanie (new)

Melanie Meghan is it a good book if you can get it.

I have so many books on my TBR list but I read them as I find them.


message 112: by Zakiya (last edited Mar 25, 2011 07:33AM) (new)
