Book Group
This was my first book group, and I think it was a great experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of this assignment. When Dr. McNeal was giving out numbers for our class to decide what group we were going to be in, I was hoping that I would like my group and I did. I benefited from having a book group in many different ways. I made new friends and I learned to like to read. Before I have this class I definitely thought that reading was a waste of time. When I saw on the syllabus that we had to choose a novel and write two papers on it I thought I was just going to find a book that had a movie to go along with it and go from there. I was wrong. Our group actually made the mistake in thinking that we had to read two books and do a paper on each one of them. I look at this as not a bad thing but very positive. I got to read two of the best books I have ever read by an awesome author. The two books that we chose was The Notebook and A Walk to Remember, both by Nicolas Sparks. If we didn't make the error in reading two books I would have never thought about A Walk to Remember, which was a remarkable novel. The book group assignment enhanced my enjoyment for reading. I am currently reading another one of Nicolas Sparks'
She gave Landon her bible for a Christmas present and he was overwhelmed. The other "so-called" walks are when Landon walks Jamie home every night after rehearsals. This book grabbed my attention the minute I picked it up. Katie answered definitely, that he stays with you forever. Myself: I actually think of myself as a contributor of the group and the person who makes everyone laugh. When her true beauty came out at the play when Jamie played an angel, Landon fell utterly in love with her. Lindsay: Lindsay was a very big contribution to our book group. Katie said "The power of the written word is so important in The Notebook because of the letters Noah writes and Allie never receives, the letters Allie writes but never sends, and the poetry Noah reads to Allie. Our second meeting was on Sunday, September 30th. During previous activities when I had the option of watching the video or reading the book, I chose the video but in this case I chose the book. Ryan thought the house represented Allie and Noah's love. Katie replied, "Jamie carried her bible around with her wherever she goes. My Interpretations of A Walk to Remember This novel, to me, symbolizes a genuine miracle and a heartfelt romance. I got into both of the novels; I just didn't want them to end. Summary for A Walk to Remember A Walk to Remember is set in 1950's North Carolina when women wore dresses and the men put on hats.
