It does make you stop to consider how you would handle yourself, if you were to lose your spouse. Readermom68 | Oct 6, 2009 | sappy, trite. the concept held promise but reading it felt like stumbling through an embarrassing high school essay. (  ) screamingbanshee | Oct 1, 2009 | I first became aware of this book when I saw previews for the movie. Since I like to read the books that movies are based on before I see the film I was happy to find a copy available on BookMooch. I wasn't expecting a lot from this novel. It falls into the chick lit genre after all so I was just hoping to be entertained. And in that the book didn't fail. I found myself laughing out loud and even coming close to tears. I love the idea that someone could love someone else so much that even when they knew that they were dying they did everything they could so that they could help the person left behind to cope. Gerry did this with Holly through letters. The letters where never very long but they all contained a simple message. Some small task for Holly to do to help her move on after he died. Little things like to buy a new outfit or to do something out of character and sing at karaoke. The letters were enough to bring Holly through that first year without the love of her life. Holly has her ups and downs but she gets through it. PS I Love You is a quick read and doesn't go into anything too deep but it was enjoyable for what it was. As originally seen on tickettoanywhere.blogspot.com (  ) Irisheyz77 | Sep 19, 2009 | MY GOD!!! I got hooked right from the first page. This novel was the best chick lit ever. On a scale 1 to 10 I gave it a 10. At times I wanted to cry, and laugh. I'm looking foward to her other novels. I can't wait to see the movie. (To bawl my eyes out, of course :) (  ) Bookwormliss | Sep 16, 2009 |  sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Amazon.com (ISBN 0786890754, Paperback)Cecelia Ahern's debut novel, PS, I Love You, follows the engaging, witty, and occasionally sappy reawakening of Holly, a young Irish widow who must put her life back together after she loses her husband Gerry to a brain tumor. Ahern, the twentysomething daughter of Ireland's prime minister, has discovered a clever and original twist to the Moving On After Death concept made famous by novelists and screenwriters alike--Gerry has left Holly a series of letters designed to help her face the year ahead and carry on with her life. As the novel takes readers through the seasons (and through Gerry's monthly directives), we watch as Holly finds a new job, takes a holiday to Spain with her girlfriends, and sorts through her beloved husband's belongings. Accompanying Holly throughout the healing process is a cast of friends and family members who add as much to the novel's success as Holly's own tale of survival. In fact, it is these supporting character's mini-dramas that make PS, I Love You more than just another superficial tearjerker with the obligatory episode at a karaoke bar. Ahern shows real talent for capturing the essence of an interaction between friends and foes alike; even if Holly's circle of friends does resemble the gang from Bridget Jones a bit too neatly to ignore (her best friend is even called Sharon).While her style can be at times repetitive and her delivery is occasionally amateurish, Ahern deserves credit for a spirited first effort. If PS, I Love You is any indication of this author's talent, readers have much to look forward to as Ahern matures as a novelist and a storyteller. --Gisele Toueg (retirado da Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:57:53 -0400) A primeira ronda de testes foi já encerrada.
