Final Post of The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks

The ending of The Notebook was one of the most remarkable endings a book can possibly wish for. The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks shows that struggling and trying your best does come with rewards, that can be considered miracles. As Noah Calhoun tries to remind his wife, Allie Nelson, of the love they shared for 63 years he is continuously let down. All of the doctors tell him that she will never remember anythings, including what her and Noah shared.
Noah accepts these hurtful comments in disbelief. There is one thing that's pushes him to tell her the story of their love and relationship, and that is hope. Unlike everyone else Noah has hope that Allie would remember him.
I enjoyed this book greatly, and rate it a nine for it is an outstanding story that proves goods things come to people who are patient. This is one of the most fantastic love stories I ever read. I loved seeing how the tragedy of Allie's alzheimers turned into triumph with Noah's hope and determination.

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld pg. 192-425 final entry

As the book came to an end I started to realize how the main character, Tally changed over time. She went from being an insecure, immature ugly, to a confident, young woman who would risk anything for the people she loves. Previously in the book Tally wanted to go to the Smoke and turn it in to the authorities, just so she can get her own wishes. Now Tally is doing something that just might put herself in danger, but save many others. Tally found the courage to do something for someone else.
Scott Westerfeld is trying to prove that there is more to growing up, than just undergoing and operation, it is about finding who you truly are while making life-changing decisions. In the end Tally finds herself and realizes that she is more than just an ugly, but a human being that deserves to have her own mind, which is taken away when becoming a pretty.
I enjoyed the book mostly towards the end because at the end everything started to make sense, and I understood why Tally made certain choices. Overall I would rate the book a seven.

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld pg. 101-195

To get the operation that turns her into a pretty Tally must find where Shay is and report it to the doctor. Tally has to embark on a long, lonely journey to a place called The Smoke. Tally faces dreadful fires, horrible weather, and other dreadful obstacles. Why is she willing to go through all this, putting her life at risk just to become a pretty?
Eventually Tally finds Shay and the other runaways and sees The Smoke. The thought of living there brings her fear, as she wonders how people survive in a place like that. Tally can't stand the fact that everyone in The Smoke is out on their own, and that everything is so isolated. She can't wait so escape and call the people and turn a pretty.
I don't understand why Tally would betray one of her best friends, just because she wants a better life for herself? The proves that Tally is selfish and never takes into mind how others are affected by her actions.
