Read from June 18 to 24, 2012
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 about love in its myriad forms – first love, the love between parents and children – that demonstrates, as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that deeply felt relationships can break our hearts… and heal them.
This novel was outright beautiful! Not awesome, not epic. Just beautiful.
What I found the most interesting was the relationship between Ronnie and Will. It was so simple. A good change after all those start-crossed romances. It was pure simplicity, pure realism, and pure sweetness.
I would simply recommend this to all those YA readers. Reading a simple love story after all those YA novels can be very good to you!
