A Walk to Remember.


I would like to tell you about one of my favorite books „A walk to remember” by Nicholas Sparks. This is one of my favorite books and the first that I read of this author.

The seventeen-years old boy, Landon Carter taught in the last year of high school in a small town in North Carolina. His father wants to Landon went on to study at the best university, but Landon is not thinking about the future, together with friends leads a carefree life. Meanwhile, the annual ball is approaching, Landon must appear on it, because it is the President of the student council, but does not have anyone to go with. All the girls have already been invited, except for one - Jamie Sullivan. It was a girl quite different than Landon, her father was a pastor, and his mother died in childbirth, leaving the Bible that Jamie always carried with him. At intervals, when all the students happily enjoying themselves, Jamie sat in the corner and read the Scriptures; He did not meet with people your own age, and often helped people visited the children at the orphanage. Landon had no choice, he invited Jamie. Their relationship, however, does not end at the ball, meet on school drama and spend with each other more and more time, but both are afraid to admit that they are in love. Only after exposing the Christmas arts profess their love, but Jamie hides a secret that will completely change their lives. The secret of this incurable disease the girl.

In my opinion, this book has the chance charm. He talks about feeling which connects the two young people who at such a young age must cope with a serious adversity.

They ask things they would like the morning of January 6, the day that gifts are distributed, and also have their behavior during the year. If children have been good, they receive gifts, but if they have been naughty receive a lump of coal.
Their Majesties travel by camels and because of this when they come of this, slow to reach Spain. Once here, they visit all the cities and towns, and hear the petitions of the children after the parade. On the night of the 5th, children put their shoes at the door before going to sleep, so the Kings know how many children live there. Also they get something to eat and drink Kings and water and grass for the camels.
On the morning of January 6, the Three Kings Day, children find their gifts in and out of her shoes. On January 6, the children play forward with their gifts of Kings again before starting school. If any member of the family used to give to another, it is typical to visit the homes of relatives and collect presents day. And this is the last day of the Christmas holidays in Spain.

Camilla Lackberg

Hi!

My passion except  for traveling there are books. I like a few types of books, for example: crime, romance, science-fiction or thriller. Which book I read – it’s depend on my mood.
Lately always I read crimes. My favourite writer is Camilla Lackberg. She is a Swedish writer and she has written book series. This book series contain nine books. I think that we will have more books, because this writer have a lot of fans and books there are a bestsellers.

Books contain a history of one woman (Erika) and one man (Patrik) . She is a writer and he is a policeman. Every book has a new history of murder  to solve. This books have a lot of fans because they  are different that other crimes. In my opinion a secret of success every book is a unique history. For example ideas of murders, plots and secrets-  all is connected with a new style of write. This style of write contain for example very interestings descriptions of main characters of book.
