Book Review; P.S. I L Y


I usually don't sit and write reviews for books that i read, but I wanted to give it a try. P.S. I Love You :-

It was a nice book by Cecelia Ahern, The daughter of Irish Prime Minister but wasn't a great one. When I heard about it I thought it would be a book I would want to read again and again but to my disappointment it wasn't one of those books after all.

I usually get a sense of satisfaction when I finish a book, that I completed it, and excitement to move on to the next. Well I was just glad it was over. I had high hopes for this book because the first chunk of it brought me to tears. And I don't cry, so this was pretty significant. But as I went on with the chapters, the tears dried and so did the reading. The story just seemed boring in the middle. I only got my spirit back as the story was wrapping up to an end.

I don't lie, so I did love the ending. At first I thought Daniel is going to be given a chance by Holly, but was glad to know it didn't work out and how Gerry's last order was still on hold even at the end of the story, that part was kind of interesting. It was also nice to know Holly is trying her best at her late husband's order even though she knows she might never be able to love like that again.

In a nutshell, the only thing that had me flipping those pages of the book even though I found it a bit boring was because of the Letter's from Gerry. Even I couldn't wait to read what he had in store for her every month.

"On the other hand, she was a women with a million happy memories, who knew what it was like to experience true love and who was ready to experience more life, more love and make new memories. Whether it happened in ten months or ten years, Holly would obey Gerry's final message. Whatever lay ahead, she knew she would open her heart and follow where it led.
In the meantime, she would just live."
