PS, I Love You

A Novel

By: Cecelia Ahern

Narrated by: Amy Creighton

From a New York Times bestselling author, a recent widow falls in love with life again, thanks to the help of her guardian angel–her late husband. Now a feature film starring Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler.

Holly and Gerry were childhood sweethearts–soulmates. And then the unthinkable happens. Gerry's death devastates Holly. But as her 30th birthday looms, Gerry comes back to her, leaving her a bundle of notes signed ‘PS, I Love You’. One for each month of the year. The man who knows her better than anyone is set out to teach her that life goes on.

With the help of her friends and family, Holly finds herself laughing, crying, singing, and dancing–life is for living, she’s realizing–and it helps if there's an angel watching over you.

I wish the movie had been more like the book!

As with almost all movies the book is better and this was no exception. This book was wonderful!

the way the author made you feel what holly was going thru

it was a lovely book. I've seen the movie of course but there's nothing like hearing it first hand how the author intended it. it was a wonderful listen.

Tissues, please!

I have the physical book and it is well read. I love the audio version and the narrator is brilliant. I always cry listening to this book. and I laugh. You will love it. I promise.

SO SO GOOD!

I loved this story. cried and laughed so many times. I got through it in about 4 days!

Could not get into it.

I tried several times to listen to this book but the thought of 8+ hours just turned me off. Maybe the narration (which was fine, but not my favorite accent) or the simplistic plot that comes right out in the beginning, turned me off. I had to set it aside.

True reflection of the grieving process

this book has shown a great example of what the grieving process can look like and how holding on can feel.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

I have read this book twice, & this is the first time listening to it in audio format.. I still laugh, cry and Love it..

Powerful Book

This is on of the most powerful books I have listened to. It made me think, it made me cry, and then it made me laugh. I’m listening to the second book (Postscript) now. I would highly recommend these two books.

Character is sweet but pathetic....

I’m not sure what prompted me to read this book other than there was a movie on it and so I thought it might be a good light read. It was indeed a light read but the main character was just so pathetic that I honestly couldn’t finish it.

mixed feelings

i usually like book versions better than movie versions by far - i find them to have more depth and authenticity. i unfortunately saw the movie many times and many years before reading this book.

for the most part i was disappointed. i found it boring and focused on mostly trivial things which seemed like a huge waste of an excellent story. it fell flat for me and it took me a long time to finish it.
BUT … there were a few moments, usually in gerrys moments, that came out of nowhere and choked me up. i found them very moving. unfortunately most of the book didn’t touch on that for me. but glad i finished it for those moments
