Book Review : 'PS, I Love You' by Cecelia Ahern

My Rating

Book Name : PS, I Love You
Author : Cecelia Ahern
Genre : Romance

Blurb : Holly couldn't live without her husband Gerry, until the day she had to. They were the kind of young couple who could finish each other's sentences. When Gerry succumbs to a terminal illness and dies, 30-year-old Holly is set adrift, unable to pick up the pieces. But with the help of a series of letters her husband left her before he died and a little nudging from an eccentric assortment of family and friends, she learns to laugh, overcome her fears, and discover a world she never knew existed.

Book from my eyes : PS, I Love You is a novel about Holly, a young who has just lost her husband to brain tumour and scattered into pieces. As I proceeded with the book, with every single incident I cried my heart out, laughed, been jealous to Holly every single moment for having such a loving family and friends. While I enjoyed every bit of the story, I was as eager as holly for Gerry'S next letter. By the time I finished reading the book, they all became my world and I started missing them.

Thumbs Up: I loved every bit of this book. But still to point out

•  The concept of the book about Gerry's letter is the biggest thumbs up. The letters were crisp and awesome. The way those letters slowly led Holly's life from the grief of Gerry's death to having a normal life is commendable. 
•  Not only Holly and Gerry, but all the relationships are portrayed in a perfect way in this book. Friends should be exactly the way Sharon and Denise are; brothers should be exactly how Jack and Declan are; Elizabeth and Ciara describe what a perfect mother and sister is. 
• This book couldn't have been better.
• There are lots of lines which touched my heart and will forever be there. Few of them being
• “Shoot for the moon, even if you fail, you'll land among the stars” 
• “Nobody's life is filled with perfect little moments. And if it were, they wouldn't be perfect little moments. They would just be normal. How would you ever know happiness if you never experience downs?” 
• “Seeming and being are not one and the same.” 
• “what a luxury it was for people to be
  able to hold their loved ones whenever they wanted.”
and many many more.

Thumbs Down : - There is none. But only thumbs down I can think of is what was Gerry's promise to John, was not disclosed. 

Verdict : A must-must-must read for everyone.
