P.S. I ♥ You

P.S. I ♥ You - sometimes you have to live life one LETTER at a time...

                Holly, a recent & a young widow, tries to overcome from what she has undergone. She feels like the world has stopped evolving for her. She loads herself with Tea at small hours and spends her days sobbing remembering the sweet memories from the past, what she has done with him which she will be doing henceforth without him, the silly quarrels over turning  off the night lamps, and so on.

She discovers that her beloved Gerry (her husband) has left some letters behind for her , instructing her to do things she'd never have had the courage to do, and that in specific-after her loss.

Gerry's letter guides her to be a sober for the first month stating there is nothing bad to cry! It helps you overcome… and did I mention that he had also instructed that Holly is supposed to unwrap one letter at a time for every following month. She obeyed him and did read letters, one every month. She would wait for the bell to tick past 12:00 for her to read the next letter. The much she was excited the more were her close friends Demise and Sharon as well. They'd call up at midnight on the first day of the month to know what Gerry had left for her.

All seemed to work for the first couple of months, but later people started moving on. She was no more the center of attraction amidst her family and friends. While she was still in grieving period, her friend Sharon had been knocked up! This was shocking as Sharon had always hated kids. Demise too contributed her part by accepting the marriage proposal from a DJ whom she had hardly known over a couple of months. The more astounding fact was Demise was always attracted to men, but never ever wanted to commit. Holly feels like the whole world is falling apart.

Will Gerry guide her through this thorn path, and how long! What will she do after all the 10 letters Gerry left her are extinguished! Will she cope up with the other people moving on, will she ever be able to discover TRUE LOVE again!!! Find out in Cecilia Ahern's P.S. I Love You

Something learnt,

I always thought that the so called TRU LOVE exists only in books and movies, after this I have checked off the BOOKS from the list, leaving out just the movies!!!

Haa haa, just kidding… anyways here is what I learnt from Cecilia Ahern's-  P.S. I Love You

Shoot for the moon, your loved ones may not be by your side, but they'll always be watching over you from within and want you to move on!

Love but pain, memories with grievance, anguish yet soothing - P.S. I ♥ You
