Book Reviews of PS, I Love You Movie Tie-In Edition
Book Review: Heartwarming and moving...
Summary: 3 Stars
This book was a big of a mixed bag for me. I think we've all had those thoughts of "what if", I know I have. How would I manage if something happened to my husband? I know a couple of people that lose their spouse and I'm in awe of them. How do they manage it? I loved that Gerry helped Holly along - each month giving her something to accomplish even after he was gone. From the funny "buy a lamp so you stop bumping up your shins" to the serious "give away my clothes and things", it was a wonderful story of grief and healing.
There were a few parts that the story dragged a bit. Some parts I could have done without. At times it was one big cliche, but overall, it was surprising. I didn't see a few of them coming.
I laughed and cried while reading this book, it's very touching. The writing was - well, she's a new writer. It was good and solid, but lacked "something" - I'm not sure what. BUT don't let the fact that this is her first novel sway you. I'd give this one three stars. Pick it up, it's definitely read-worthy.
Book Review: Quite possibly the worst book I've ever read.
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this book second-hand because I was curious. The film is a guilty pleasure of mine, and I was hoping that the book would be better (which is usually the case). I'm afraid to say that this book is incredibly poorly written and not a thing like the film. Truly, the film was "loosely" based on the book and is, itself, far from brilliant. Honestly, it's not even good, but I do have affection for it. The book, however, is abysmal.
