Postscript by Cecelia Ahern

 


Synopsis :

It's been seven years since Holly Kennedy's husband died – six since she read his final letter, urging Holly to find the courage to forge a new life.

She’s proud of all the ways in which she has grown and evolved. But when a group inspired by Gerry's letters, calling themselves the PS, I Love You Club, approaches Holly asking for help, she finds herself drawn back into a world that she worked so hard to leave behind.

Reluctantly, Holly begins a relationship with the club, even as their friendship threatens to destroy the peace she believes she has achieved. As each of these people calls upon Holly to help them leave something meaningful behind for their loved ones, Holly will embark on a remarkable journey – one that will challenge her to ask whether embracing the future means betraying the past, and what it means to love someone forever…


Saying what I think :

Cecelia Ahern brings us back to the life of Holly Kennedy from the famed titled P.S. I love you which was made into a box office movie of the same title.  Watching the movie will make you cry buckets and reading P.S I Love You will do the same.  

Postscript however is more mild in comparison.  Postscripts tells the story of Holly seven years after the death of her Gerry.  She is now in a new relationship with someone named Gabriel.  However, the legacy of Gerry lives on and she met some terminal sick patients who wanted to do what Gerry did for her.  As Holly helped and advised these patients on their 'quest', it is also a journey of discovery for herself and at the end of everything, Gerry still had the last word.

I enjoyed reading Postscript.  It will never be as good as P.S. but it shouldn't compete with P.S. It is a good follow up read for P.S.

p.s. I just realised that while I have read P.S. I Love You, I have never review it.  I think I will revisit this title next.
