Who's ready for tragic teen romance? We're back on a sick lit kick with A Walk To Remember, the tale of "bad" boy Landon and literal good girl / angel Jamie, whose pure love changes him forever.
This is...not a text for us. While we find the book highly readable, Landon is definitely a garbage character (even if that's the point!) while Jamie is too perfect in all the wrong Manic Pixie Dreamperson ways. And then there's the ending, which is both ableist, icky and just plain dumb.
We know we're probably in the minority, but this faith-based love affair just didn't stick the landing (also: it just ends!). On the plus side, at least we got to watch Mandy Moore sing - even if it was a whole darn song for no good reason.
