The year is 1958. Landon Carter is a typical high school student. The only thing that matters is going out with friends, spend as little time as possible at school and enjoy their last years of freedom before going to college. Jamie Sullivan, however, is no ordinary girl. No leaves at night, do not go to parties or makeup as do the other girls her age. Village pastor's daughter, spends reading the Bible at lunch, afternoons volunteering at an orphanage and summers at the camp of the parish. There could be two people more different. Until one Christmas Eve, everything changes. In just one month, Landon discover things that takes a lifetime to learn, truths about the nature of beauty, the joy of living, the pain of loss and, above all, real and miraculous power of first love ...
is the first book I've finished this year and the first I've read in my ebook.
At first I took, as it was downloaded I did not think anything would happen if she left as it was a little hard to read. I do not know if it was a translation or why but there were some paragraphs difficult to read or understand.
But I do not regret having tried a little, is a wonderful story. Jamie is a charm and although they had not treated well, she has nice words for everyone, including Landon did change and that he was the "Chulilla" as it somehow.
Sorry for how it ends.
One thing I like about the books is to find a phrase that is the title. Sometimes there are titles of books that have nothing to do with the story, do not know why they put them. Well, this yea, and I must say I was excited when I read it was so sad.
"It's been four years, but the image of James coming towards me, never forget me."
"Jamie saved my life, taught me everything: what is life, hope and the long way to go. I always miss but our love is like the wind, I can not see but feel. "
Another book by this author that has surprised me, a story so tender .
