Book vs. Movie
I liked the ending of the movie waaaaaay better than i liked the ending of the book. I thought it was so much cuter how they died hand in hand and it was clear that they died like that. the ending to the movie said they died together after they kissed for the last time but it wasn't clear
Ending
I liked the ending, but it was kind of a cliff-hanger. It kind of let you think of what might have happened because the book ended right after they kissed. I didn't really like how the book did that because I was looking forward to the ending of the book and I was disapointed how the book didn't really give you a clear ending. I was really disapointed to the ending! :(

The End
I really enjoyed the end of the book. I htink it is sweet how the nurse leaves becaus eshe knows Noah will sneek and see Allie. I love how when Noah goes in her room and kisses her that she kises him back. There love was so strong that they beat her sickness. That is an example of how strong love can be. I am not sure if they die together. Overall i really enjoyed this book. I agree with the theme of the book. I think that this kind of love is true and that it can happen. I believe that it happens all the time. I also strongly believe that if it is true love it will always keep you together.

Towards the beginning of the last chapter Allie remembers Noah for a little bit and before she forgets him again Noah wishes that they could die like this, remembering each other, dying as a married couple. I'm not sure if they died with Allie knowing who Noah is, but I love the way the book ends. He goes into her room late and night to watch her sleep because he misses her, and he kisses her and all of the sudden she kisses back and then she tells Noah that she misses him, and it's a miracle and the book ends.
I was so sad when I found out that Allie has altimherz. Although I was so happy when I found out they got married and had children, I'm not sure how Allie managed to end things with Lon and make the right decision to be with Noah, but I'm happy she did. I feel so bad for Noah that he has to see his wife every day but she doesn't even know his name, but at least they get to be together.
winter for two
The ending of the book goes as the man who was reading the story, the narrator is actually Noah. The woman he is reading to is actually Allie but she has Alzheimers disease, and she can not even remember who Noah is half of the time, but everyday he reads her the notebook and tries to get her to fall in love with him. Some days it works, and some days it doesn't though. They both kind of figuring out that they are dying, Noah more than Allie, but it's nice that they are together. It shows how if you find the right person, their love for each other is eternal.
Aged Love
After reading about Noah and Allie and their life together, the ongoing theme of love is proven. We learn that allie has Alzheimer's and that she is getting worse and worse. Noah reads to her everyday, he reads to her from a notebook. The story he reads is the story of them and the love they shared. He reads to her everyday in hope that it will be a good day and she will remember and tye can hold eachother till she forgets. I find this very interesting because Noah knows that she cant remember things but still he doesnt care. He believes that she will remember and for that little time they will be like the old days. This shows that love if it is real is the strongest thing. This shows that Allie and Noah really do have something special and that there love is so powerful it can do anyhting and will always keep them together.
