About this deal

For me it was a good book, I will not say it was great because I have to be honest it was not. There were more books from this author that was better than this one. Am a disappointed? Maybe a little. I am a big fan of Nicholas Sparks, that whenever a new book was coming out, I get so excited about it. I even watched every film adaptations of his book. Maybe I'm just expecting more from him this time, more beautiful and touching stories that we all love. Ira Levinson is in trouble. Ninety-one years old and stranded and injured after a car crash, he struggles to retain consciousness until a blurry image materializes beside him: his beloved wife Ruth, who passed away nine years ago. Urging him to hang on, she forces him to remain alert by recounting the stories of their lifetime together - how they met, the precious paintings they collected together, the dark days of WWII and its effect on them and their families. Ira knows that Ruth can't possibly be in the car with him, but he clings to her words and his memories, reliving the sorrows and everyday joys that defined their marriage. A few miles away, at a local rodeo, a Wake Forest College senior’s life is about to change. Recovering from a recent break-up, Sophia Danko meets a young cowboy named Luke, who bears little resemblance to the privileged frat boys she has encountered at school. Through Luke, Sophia is introduced to a world in which the stakes of survival and success, ruin and reward -- even life and death – loom large in everyday life. As she and Luke fall in love, Sophia finds herself imagining a future far removed from her plans -- a future that Luke has the power to rewrite . . . if the secret he’s keeping doesn’t destroy it first. The Longest Ride". CinemaScore. Archived from the original on April 5, 2015 . Retrieved April 11, 2015. There’s a lot of us out there looking for that perfect one who’ll salvage the vacuum that life has created in our hearts and souls. Sounds corny and somewhat unempowered, but most of us, through the blessing that is popular media, have been conditioned to believe that finding your soulmate is the final step to leading a happy life.

The Longest Ride', starring Britt Robertson, begins filming in Wilmington, NC on June 16". www.onlocationvacations.com. May 29, 2014. Do you think it's probable that someone who's sitting on potentially millions (billions?) of dollars would give away the paintings of such worth to the person who bought a POS--albeit heartfelt--painting by a child, at an auction? It may be probably...as in, a 1 in 500 trillion chance. But guess what! That's exactly what happens in this book. Luke and Sophia's lives become richer because they inherit tons of paintings that are worth a ton, at the EXACT same time that Luke's family is losing the family ranch. I have read books by Nicholas Sparks before, I have even loved books by Nicholas Sparks before but this one ... IT WAS THE LONGEST RIDE INDEED.. To me this just felt like Nicholas Sparks had this two not-yet-great ideas about two completely different love stories and he was like "You know what, Im just going to put this two together in a book and then find a way to make them connect, yup, that will work." But, gosh to me, it didn't work.A few miles away, at a local bull-riding event, a Wake Forest College senior’s life is about to change. Recovering from a recent break-up, Sophia Danko meets a young cowboy named Luke, who bears little resemblance to the privileged frat boys she has encountered at school. Through Luke, Sophia is introduced to a world in which the stakes of survival and success, ruin and reward — even life and death – loom large in everyday life. As she and Luke fall in love, Sophia finds herself imagining a future far removed from her plans — a future that Luke has the power to rewrite . . . if the secret he’s keeping doesn’t destroy it first. Then we have this other story, Ira and Ruth. This one had so much more potential! But overrall... meh. Their story was definitely better than the main one but at the same time I found the chapters about Ira inside the car way too annoying, like, I wanted to move on with the book and to me they kind of felt slow and even pointless. I’m listening to the audio version and I will be honest. If you have to do it any way, listen to the audio version, it’s fabulous. The voice actors were PERFECT. I couldn’t have image any other voices. Kit, Borys (March 17, 2014). "George Tillman Jr. in Final Talks to Direct 'Longest Ride' (Exclusive)". The Hollywood Reporter . Retrieved December 16, 2017.

It's strange, I think, the way our lives turn out. Moments of circumstance, when later combined with conscious decisions and actions and a boatload of hope, can eventually forge a future that seems predestined.” The Lonest Ride is a sweet and grip-at-you-heart romance novel. If you want your heart to ache and your face to smile, then this one is for you. I wasn’t sure how the two stories of Ira and Ruth and Sophia and Luke would link so when it was all revealed it was a great surprise for me. I enjoyed how Nicholas Sparks wrote about a love story that was just beginning with Sophia and Luke, and a love story that had only strengthened and grew with time in the case of Ira and Ruth, and how these two story flowed effortlessly together. The Longest Ride (film), a 2015 American Neo Western romantic drama film based on Spark's novel of the same nameLike I mentioned before I'm quiet sure that I'm giving this 4 star cuz of the movie. The stars were chosen so well I think this is one where movie stars totally match the characters in my head. So I would like to recommend to everyone to watch The Longest Ride movie along side the book :) I just read that Scott Eastwood (yeah Clint's hunkalicious son) has been cast for the movie http://www.usmagazine.com/entertainme... If we'd never met, I think I would have known my life wasn't complete. And I would have wandered the world in search of you, even if I didn't know who I was looking for.” I wish I had the talent to paint the way I feel about you, for my words always feel inadequate. I imagine using red for your passion and pale blue for your kindness; forest green to reflect the depth of your empathy and bright yellow for your unflagging optimism. And still I wonder: can even an artist’s palette capture the full range of what you mean to me?”

Book Review: ‘The Longest Ride’ by Nicholas Sparks - Two Book Review: ‘The Longest Ride’ by Nicholas Sparks - Two

Nicholas Sparks I love you but dang....You are already rich....I mean really....It's a digital book.....Unless it reads the book to me I do not like this price... Sofia and Luke are the other couple. Sofia is a senior in college and Luke is a professional rodeo bull rider. Sofia has just come off a bad break up and certainly had not planned to meet someone new. Her roommate drags her along to a good old fashioned barn dance where she meets Luke. Their conversation is easy, they instantly connect. And, their romance begins. They fall in love. But they also have obstacles in their path. Luke doesn’t tell Sofia why he hasn’t been riding the last eighteen months and has just now returned to the arena. And how does a professional bull rider that lives on a ranch fit into the life of an art history major? The Lonest Ride has all the elements I’m looking for in a cowboy theme book. I’m from Texas, so I take my cowboys seriously.Busch, Anita (April 8, 2015). "Box Office Preview: 'Furious 7' Riding The Wave, 'Longest Ride' In Rearview Mirror". Deadline Hollywood . Retrieved December 16, 2017. Este libro esta narrado en dos líneas de tiempo, una por un hombre de noventa años que se encuentra accidentado en una carretera nevada aislada y otra por una estudiante de arte y un cowboy. The truth is that when I saw the trailer of The Wildest Ride I was super excited to read it!! And now that I finally read it, I'm even more excited to see the movie!!I really enjoyed this amazing story!! Nicholas Sparks is a very famous author!I have seen many of his books that have become movies but never before I have read a book of him! Mr. Sparks, I love to cosy up at home and read your romantic and inspiring novels from time to time, but this book was indeed an incredibly LONG and BORING ride. A complete disappointment. The first two-third of this was mind-numbingly dull. The two couples in question, especially Sophia and Luke were possibly some of the most boring characters I’ve ever had the displeasure of coming across. The older couple, Ira and Ruth, was a little more interesting, but not great. And forgive me, but are Nicholas Sparks’ books seriously considered ROMANCE?? Coz the chemistry here can scarcely fill a teaspoon. Non-existent passion, clichéd, annoying dialogues and excessive, unnecessary descriptions.
