I Love You by Cecelia Ahern (1-Mar-2012) Paperback

Good story even if you have never seen the movie. If you have seen the movie, there are nice details the movie couldn't bring to the screen and the characters will be familiar with more details into Holly's family.

I was really looking forward to reading this book after seeing the movie trailer with Hilary Swank. It looked like a great, original story. So, I was very dissapointed when I got into it. I understand that poor Holly lost her husband, yet she is so self-centered and wishy-washy throughout the story that it substantially took away from the uniqueness of the "gift" left behind to her by her dearly departed husband. This is really just OK, and sort of reads like a young adult novel.

I bought this book with high hopes.
Unfortunately, it was a big let down. I've seen the movie many times, it is one of my favorites and as soon as I found out it was based on a book, I had to read it.
Super boring, hard to get into, waaaay too predictable (including the ending) and there aren't really any likeable characters.

I wanted to get through it as fast as possible so I could move to my next read. I don't like leaving books unfinished, but with this one it might have been a good idea.

This book is one of my favorites, Loved the story, her best one I have read. I laughed out loud ,and cried out loud. The premise was heartwarming, and the characters jumped out at you. read the book you won't be disappointed.

I read this book after hearing about the movie, and I was disappointed. Not bad for a first effort, but all in all, this book was lacking depth. There is so much more the author could have done to develop the chain of events that occurred as the result of the notes. The idea that the book is based on is a good one, but the development of the idea comes up short.

I got through this book fairly quickly. It wasn't really an enjoyable read. While there were funny parts, most of it was depressing and none of it was exciting or surprising. Don't waste your time..

Lots of Kleenexy moments, but not much more to it besides lots of drunken revelry.
I found the deceased husband's notes to be annoying and controlling. Further, who would sit around, unemployed, and not have finding a job as a top priority?
