Done with another book.. But I miss my usual feeling of accomplishing something after every book.. I wish P.S I Love You had lasted longer.. just as Holly wished Gerry’s cards kept coming on all the remaining months of her life..
Holly and Gerry, the 2 names which I woke up and slept to will never leave my thoughts, when anything related to Love appears.. A book apart from the Chicken Soup series which had my eyes constantly filled from the first chapter, and yet I never regretted reading it.. It is more about a mourning story of a young widow and still it never felt so. Every card from Gerry made me wish Holly woke up from her dream to her loving husband beside.
It depicts the Love of a Marvelous man towards his wife, how they love each other and how they fight over silly stuff and how all the imperfections no longer seem imperfect once the final date is nearing, and when it arrives, how the sad-struck Holly deals with the empty house and the uninterested challenges Gerry posed on her, how she demarcates the true friends from the not-so-true ones, how she manages being amidst a crowd of couples evolving, breaking up or ditching each other, how she evolves as a stronger woman every day and making us go weak as pages fly.
Amidst all these, you would really be satisfied with lot of smiles, laughter, love and curses for Cecilia Ahern for not getting impressed by the Dream chapter we have in most of our Tamil movies.
There is a movie available on this novel. But, pls do read the book and for sure, you would hunt for a copy to experience more of Holly and Gerry..
P.S: I miss you Holly
