English 12 Summer Reading Book Review The Last Song is a 2009 novel written by Nicholas Sparks to influence and inspire teenagers with similar life get laids. Sparks sparked teenagers interest by fetching reality from everyday teenage life, society and class. The Last Song portrays the life of a teenage daughter with a hard past and tougher future. It consists of an excellent plot wonderful, unique characters and a great life lesson. This twaddle is about a seventeen year old Veronica Ronnie Millers.Ronnie has not talked to her father since her parents divorced. The result of her parents withdrawal put her into a deep hole of despair to the extent that she refused to play piano again. For the summer Ronnie and her brother, curse are sent to live with their father who lives in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina where she changes who she is completely because she finds herself in life or death, love or hate situations.

She learned to forgive and reinforced a relationship with her father while helping him to hang on to life a junior-grade longer. The novel is written from Ronnies pint of view which makes it powerful. We feel what Ronnie feels as well as experience her struggles. The tone of the story goes from being rebellious and hateful to loving and caring. Ronnie begins to change from being angry to happy and appreciative.Ronnies little brother serves as an example of acceptance and forgiveness. Jonah is open to spending metre with his father and rebuilding the lost relationship which shows that he holds no rancor against his father. On the other hand, Ronnie is not open to rebuilding the relation ship and looks toward Jonah as a form of comfort. The story is very dingy because Ronnies father is dying of cancer. Ronnie and Jonah do not know that he is dying, and that this is the last summer that they will get to spend with him, and to mend their relationships.Sparks connects life and death with sea turtle hatchlings and their fathers situation. He uses the hatchlings as a symbol of new life and as a way for Ronnie to instruct life and the importance of relationships. Throughout the story, Ronnies father is writing a song on his piano, entitle The Last Song. He really wants this song to be shared between him and Ronnie. This song not only symbolizes the relationship between Ronnie and her father but also Ronnies final transformation as she closing curtaines the song right after her fathers death.Her love for her father grows to a point where she realizes she has to finish the song for her father because he cannot. At the end of the story, she plays the song at his funeral. The story is very turned on(p) that makes even the strongest to cry. I cried when I read the book. Sparks captures the readers by getting them emotionally attached to the characters, the setting, and the plot of the story, and consequently destroys their world when Ronnies father dies. Sparks wrote such an amazing tale those readers of all ages could easily understand and allude to.
