The Last Song

The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks is the story of a teenage girl, Ronnie, who goes to spend the summer with her father at Wrightsville Beach. At the beginning of the summer, Ronnie is very rebellious and resents her father for her parents divorce. At that point she hasn't spoken to her father in 3 years so naturally she does not want to spend the summer with him. But the summer she had dreaded ends up being a learning opportunity for her! She learns about faith, family, and love.



The story is very good and you WON'T be able to set it down, I promise. It is a cute love story but it is also so much more than that. It shows the rebuilding of a relationship between a father and daughter. I must warn you though, you will need a box of tissues when reading this novel. There are a few parts in the book that are just devastating! I'm not much of a crier when it comes to reading but this is one where I balled like a baby!

Plus, they made a movie based on this book! I always like books that have movies because I like to see how it translates from what I had imagines when reading. Its always interesting to see whats different and whats the same from what I pictured.

If you like a love story but nothing too sappy, this is the book for you! I promise you wont regret reading this. It is one you will want to re-read several times. It is such a sweet story! And it made my top 5 favorite books list!

Don't believe me?  Check out RedHannah91's review of The Last Song! She gives it a 4.5 out of 5. Not to shabby! Enjoy!
