 I couldn't put it down! November 15, 2008
I absolutly love this book! It had everything you could ask for and i couldn't put it down .I have read some of Cecelia's other books, and had high expectations for this one also. It didnt let me down! I must admit i think this is one of her best books, it is such an easy read. I recomend this to everyone even if you haven't read any of Ceclia's books, start with this one!

This came up under recommendations for me and I have to protest. This book and its author are lumped into the same category as Philippa Gregory and Jodi Picoult. What an insult to Gregory and Picoult, who are both very talented and thought-provoking writers! I tried to read three of Ahern's books (all found at a recycle point). Each was very juvenile. I cannot imagine anyone not between the ages of 10-18 who would find her method of writing or her storylines interesting. Her characters are 1-dimensional stereotypes and the stories downright boring. She stops just short of using "text language" (Dat=that, R=are, C U latr=See you later, etc.) in the three books I tried.
I'm sure there is a type of person who finds this author and her books interesting. I'm just not one of them.
 Light hearted read October 27, 2008
I loved PS I love you, and started to read a place called here, I don't think I even got half way through before giving up.
This, however, captivated me. As others have said, I laughed and cried at the same time, and although far fetched, the storyline is brilliant. It does seem to drag a little, the connection between Joyce and Justin was far to obvious for it to drag on that long. As much as I loved this book and whizzed through it, there are parts that were totally irrelevent to the story, and the ending was too rushed and could have been over and done with a few chapters previously.
I still really enjoyed it though and am looking forward to reading The Gift.

Fantastic Read October 19, 2008
Cecelia Ahern is a fantastic writer and I would definately recommend her to anyone who is interested in romantic-comedy type books. She writes really well and the storyline was great.
However, it was a bit confusing at the beginning when you didn't know what was going on, but it soon got really interesting and funny. The relationships in it are really complex and I think that is what makes the book work so well.
