The Last Song

I recently read The Last Song written by Nicholas Sparks. This book is about a girl named Ronnie. Ronnie is very... edgy I guess. She doesn't exactly like her parents very much. Her parents are divorced, and one summer her and her younger brother have to go stay in North Carolina with her dad who they don't exactly like. The first couple days it's hard for Ronnie to be with her dad but she then grows to love him and have a meaningful bonding relationship. Ronnie meets this young man named Will who she falls in love with. Ronnie and Will's family are complete opposites. Ronnie's family is not proper at all and isn't very wealthy, and Will's family is very proper and wealthy. Will's sister is getting married so Ronnie goes to the wedding, it's very hard for her at this wedding with the issues of her friends pushing against her and the pressure of her being perfect for Will's family. Ronnie's dad is working on a stainglass window for a church that had burnt down from Will's friends although Ronnie's dad Steve thinks that it was his fault. Ronnie goes on the beach one day and see's sea turtle eggs, the eggs meant a lot to her. One night her and Will sleep on the beach to protect the eggs the night that they are supposed to hatch. They protect the eggs from many animals trying to eat them. The eggs hatch in the morning and go towards the sea, Steve and Ronnie's brother come out  of the house to look at them. On their way out Steve collapses, Ronnie and her brother soon realize that their dad didn't want to tell them that he was sick. This book is a very heartwarming, yet said book about the relationships that Ronnie has with many people in her life. Ronnie is pressured into doing many things, yet is still a strong young. The relationship that her and Will have together is very strong. They do many things for eachother to help them through their own lives. Although they may get in some fights, Will and Ronnie stick up for eachother, and do anything that they can for the other. This book is an easy read and I recommend it to people that love a good story with many different kinds of heartwarming relationships between family, friends, and animals.
