A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks MAG
Set in Beaufort, North Carolina, in the 1950s, A Walk to Remember tells the story of 17-year-old Landon Carter, who learns to live life differently after meeting Jamie Sullivan. Initially, Landon is the kind of guy who cares too much about what people think of him. But when Jamie comes into the picture, he only cares about being with her.
Things are looking up for Landon, until Jamie drops a bomb that changes their lives forever.
In A Walk to Remember, the characters take time to get to know each other and end up falling in love. Like other novelists of realistic fiction, Nicholas Sparks emotionally engages the reader. A Walk to Remember reminded me of all of Lurlene McDaniel’s novels, because both authors use themes of love and death.
A Walk to Remember is a book that you will not want to put down until you’ve reached the last page, because Sparks draws the reader in with emotions, descriptions, love, and death. For those who enjoy novels that touch your heart and make you think about real life, A Walk to Remember is perfect for you.

Hi, Mrs. HarryPotter. I read A Walk to Remember when I was fourteen, and there was no inappropriate or graphic content. :)
