I have thoroughly enjoyed Love, Rosie. The whole novel is an exchange of emails, instant messaging, greeting cards, and letters between Rosie and her childhood best friend Alex, and all the people that matter in her life: family, close friends, even 'evil' bosses. Alex (Prince Moonbeam) and Rosie (Princess Buttercup) are best friends who grow up together in Ireland. Even though they were apart from each other due to cross-continental moves, marriages, parenthood, work, and family challenges, they stay close throughout. Romance is always under the surface, but timing and circumstances always seem to work against them. They stayed friends for close to 50 years before fate decided to work in their favour.
This is a wonderful story with witty dialogues throughout. I drew a few learning points from this novel too. I wouldn't say I love it, but I definitely like it. Having said that, I absolutely adore Cecelia Ahern's PS: I Love You. I cried buckets for that one.

I was first introduced to this book by the MPH Book Sales 2005. And was stucked to the author a little after that. Read most of her books. After a while, found her quite repetitive.
Wei Cmate, I read both Ahern's book quite a distance apart. Not sure how long apart, maybe 2 to 3 years. Maybe that's why I don't quite see the repetitiveness. Thanks for popping by!
My version of this book is with the title 'Where Rainbows End'! Only got it for RM16.90 from Popular. A real bargain, really!
This is my second Ahern book and I really liked it. It's such an interesting book with destiny playing with Alex and Rosie. If only the book wasn't so thick!
