The Last Song

An emotional read, this one. This novel tells of a relationship between a father and his children, especially with his 18 year old daughter. It tells the story of faith and patience and so much more. I somehow could relate with Ronnie's character, of her refusing to talk to her father for three years for walking out of the family. It makes me recall my own relationship with my late father.

Unlike Ronnie, though, I didn't have the privilege to spend precious last moments with my father. That is exactly why this novel is an emotional read for me. It makes me go to places I don't want to go. It makes me remember. And it makes me cry.
