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 alientated 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 of love on many levels--first love, love between parents and children -- that demonstrates, as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that love can break our hearts...and heal them.

I just picked this up...Do you have a book club thing going on ...I missed a ton on vacation...
I was just about to place an order from Barnes & Noble...glad I held off and saw this 1st so I can add it to my order! I can't wait to get started on it =)
Yep we are starting a book club! I've posted a ton about in the past week, feel free to join in Adrienne!
We are going to be starting in just a few weeks I hope I gave everyone enough time to get the book! I'm so excited!
so i bought this for my ereader... but question?? Should we just pick a chapter to get to?? Cause my "pages" are numbered the same as in the book lol
Bri- I went through the book and they happen to end on a new chapter on each hundred (or with in a page) so I will post for sure when we are reading on where to stop.
I am really interested in joining. How do I go about doing so?
Just read along with us! I'm going to post every week once we start reading, just come in and check in and talk about what you feel about the book!
I meant to say my pages *aren't* the same as in the book... lol sorry lost my mind for a sec :)
This is completely off topic, but have you ever heard the song "Sink or Swim" by Tyrone Wells? If not, you should definitely check it out! Every time I come to your blog I start singing that song in my head!
Jes- YES I HAVE! I love that song! I had it playing on here for a while...but took the music off. I think I might add just that song back.
I'm so excited to start reading this at the beginning of April!
got my book in the mail today! can't wait to start reading and discussing =)
so was this one chosen because it's going to be a movie?
with miley cyrus no less.
Michael- I didn't pick it, everyone had 3-4 days to vote on which book they wanted and this one won (I wanted a different one...lol)
I won't be the one choosing the books everyone will vote every month. I will add a few from the last round and I will take sugestions from people on books they feel would be good to be read.
