The Last Song


      I have just recently started The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. It is about a girl named Ronnie. She is a very unique and beautiful person, who is different and trying to fit into society. She is struggling and hurt. She has come to spend the summer with her dad. But something is disturbing her and I wanted to find out what, so then I researched why she was struggling. I mean Ronnie is a good kid who is never in the right place in the right time. Even though she might be a good kid she still has an attitude towards her dad. I think the main thing is that she is going through the life of divorced parents. Her brother shows that he is missing his father while Ronnie shows it in a different way. Ronnie shows it with an aggressive remark. While her brother shows it by asking questions. He asks questions and wants to know what is happening and he knows it isn't his dads fault and wants to fix things. Ronnie is craving attention so badly she even decided to steal something from a store back in New York, but she has learned her lesson. When her new friend was stealing she stooped her and then paying for it. Ronnie now right from wrong but she is still acting very weird and strange.
      It might be this or it might just be some teenage rebellion. Which is what all teenage girls go through sometimes it just doesn't work out but, Ronnie she is different from other girls, it is not just all hurt and bitter she has a sweet side and her dad sees it in her. She tries to save these turtles she sees on a beach showing her caring compaction for animals and other things. The turtle seem to be a big symbol they come up in the story a lot I would like to read forward and see what symbol or what this can be.  She is a crazy character. But she knows right from wrong that's why Ronnie  is a fun character to figure out on my opinion she is a normal girl with a lot going on her world and she is struggling but this summer ahead of her may even help her live her life ahead of her.

  1. I think you did a really good job digging deep into the book, trying to find the problem, and giving examples.

  2. I like how you described Ronnie and tried to figure out what was up with her and I also liked how you connected her to all teenage girls.

  3. I think you did a great job of finding out about Ronnie. You seem to know a lot about her from what you read.
