Where the rainbow ends....



Here's another inspring novel by Cecelia Ahern which i really love..with that, i would like to share with you all bout this novel's summary:


The warm and inspiring story from the author, Cecelia Ahern is a bittersweet tale of childhood friends Rosie and Alex whose relationship must survive many trials and tribulations, not least the discovery of their true feelings for one another.

From naughty children to rebellious teenagers and young adults, Rosie and Alex have stuck by each other through thick and thin, even when Alex moved with his family across the Atlantic Ocean to Boston and Rosie fell pregnant as a teenager after they had broke up.

Amazingly, their friendship survive the years and the miles and, more critically, when they each marry someone else... However, Alex supports Rosie through one of the most difficult times of her life, a time when she should be out partying and going to university but is instead changing nappies and coping with her new born-baby. In return, Rosie is there for Alex when he struggles through his medical internship and copes with a messy divorce with his unfaithful wife.

Throughout the ups and downs of each other's lives, they have remained a constant, a shoulder to cry on, someone to laugh and share their innermost feelings with. Misunderstandings, circumstances and this novel chronicles their lives, from teenage dances to the start of their careers and relationships with others.

PS: I LOVE YOU



PS: I LOVE YOU by the famous author, Cecelia Ahern is one of my favourite novel. This heart- melting story thought me a lot about love, life and time. This story promotes good relationship among family members, marriage and also friendship. It revolves around how we should always have optimism in life no matter how difficult a situation way seem. Dare to do something beyond our expectation that it could somehow improves our confidence. As the saying goes, if there is a will, there is always a way.

Here is the summary of the novel which i would like to share with you all...

Set in Dublin, Ireland, Holly Kennedy is a beautiful, smart and is married to the love of her life, a passionate, loving, impetuous and funny Gerry. So when Gerry's life was taken by an illness (Brain tumor), it also takes the life out of Holly. Being all dependant to her husband, she is now all hopeless. Try imagine this, she has been dating Gerry since high school days... The only one person who can help her is no longer there. Nobody know Holly better than Gerry.

So the brilliant and mind boggling Gerry, had planned things ahead in the midst of his illness. Before he died, he wrote Holly a series of 10 letters which he hoped to be able to guide her when he is no longer around in this world, not only through her griefs burt also to rediscovering her true self. The messages which Gerry had left her are the ways to lead her life on and also to tell that he will always be there for her.

As time goes by, more of Gerry letters arrives to her every month in suprising ways...each sending her a new adventure, and each signing of in the same way, "PS: I LOVE YOU". Holly's mother and her best freinds, Sharon and Denise are worried that Gerry's letters will reminded her of the past memories. however, each letter pushing her to a new future and had change her into a more independant and charismatic person.

With Gerry's word as her guide, Holly set out on the new journey of rediscovering the true meaning of marriage, freindships, and family ties. Especially, how an unconditional love of her husband..a love so strong that can turn a finality of death to a new begining of life.
