This week I finished reading the The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. Last week I left off when Ronnie and Will's relationship has blossomed but there was something that was being left unsaid about Steve, Ronnie's father. The author kept hinting about something with Steve but it was never clear what... We then found out that Steve was terminally ill and was only given a few months more, if that. He wanted to spend the summer with his kids, which would have been their last times together.
Another thing that I like about this book is that it has a recurring theme of subject that repeats itself numerous times. For example the piano. It was always known that playing the piano was a large part of their relationship together, and that Steve once taught at Julliard, but it didn't play a major role,just subtle hints here and there. There was also the stained glass window that Steve and Ronnie's little brother were making, and the author brought this back at the very end of the book as a metaphor for the life and light. I thoroghly enjoyed reading this story and look forward to the next one I pick up.
