The Last Song..

Loved the book to the core :)

It's the 1st book, I felt, not even a word is wasted.Every line and every page has it's own purpose and a special way to touch the hearts.
Ronnie, a 17yr old girl, matured enough, independent, caring, lovable, adorable, funny, honest and so on.. was angry with her father, stops talking to him for 3 years, as she believes he divorced her mother, and left the family for his own sake, which ,she learns later, is not true.
Her father, Steve, is a pianist, for whom music is life, who's awaiting to feel God's presence on the earth, and who loves Ronnie and, his only son, Jonah, 10 yr old, more than life itself.
When everything was going well, Ronnie learns Piano from her father and is very good at it.But she stops playing it when she gets angry with her father.Which adds to the Steve's pain of missing his family.
One day, he comes to know, he's in advanced stage of throat cancer and left only few days to live.
When informing this to his ex-wife, Kim, requests her to let the children spend the summer with him. And he asks her not to tell them about his health.
He lives in South Carolina, a beach town.
Ronnie, reluctantly agrees to come down, as she had no choice of deciding, as she was still 17 then, where as Jonah was happy to spend with his father.
Ronnie, comes to like her father for his ultimate love and forgiveness.
She falls in love with Will, 18 yr old, who loves her back.
They both share such a sweet love, which lasts for their life times.
Jonah admits he never wanna leave the place though he misses his mom.
Seems, everything is fair until they come to know the truth, that their father is going to die soon.
Jonah was too young to understand anything and Ronnie's heart breaks as she realizes how much pain she caused to her dad.
Summer comes to end, so their time of being together.
Ronnie, by then, completes 18 years and now is an adult, who can decide things for herself.
She insists to stay with her dad, to treasure the last moments and to take care of him.
Having no other choice, Jonah, leaves to New York, with his mother.
Ronnie plays the Piano for him and completes the song, which her dad started and left because of his ill-health. Which is their last song.
Steve realizes God is always, everywhere, and He'll answer to every question, and answer can be heard with the heart, not ears.

And he passes away, peacefully, feeling he's the most luckiest father.

Superb Book :) Bless Nicholas Sparks :)
