What a fabulous first few chapters. Was worried after reading ps I love u a very long time ago that I would struggle to pick up Holly’s character again but I didn’t. It’s wonderful. Hurry up full book please!

So delighted to get the chance to catch up with Holly again, 15 years after PS I Love you was first published. Set seven years after the death of her husband Gerry, we meet Holly as she is still learning to be just 'Holly' after being part of 'Holly and Gerry' for so long. Just as life seems to be moving on for her, she takes part in an interview 'Let's Talk About Death' where she talks to a group about just how important Gerry's letters were to her as part of her moving on. There is an unintended consequence to this which hits her for six.

And that's where the extract ends!

I was totally caught up in Holly's world again and found this a compelling read. Cecelia Ahern has all the emotions spot on as usual and knows grief can come at any time. I can't wait to read the rest of the book later this year.

Well that was a proper teaser. I went straight to but the book and it’s not out until September . Loved the first three chapters got straight back into Holly and her character. Looking forward to reading the rest

Wow! What a strong start to what will be a fabulous book.. It is now seven years since .Holly.'s beloved husband Gerry died, aged just 30. Her long winter is gradually turning into spring. with boyfriend Gabriel's help, Holly plucks up courage to speak about her experience of bereavement on her sister Ciara's podcast, in front of a live audience, including her friend Sharon with her two children. A designer label-clad lady, Angela Carberry seems particularly affected by the talk.and presses Holly to tell her story to more people. When she phones Angela to refuse her request, she is given devastating news

I love the humour of Sharon's noisy babies creating chaos. amid the pathos and sad honesty of the bereavement event.. Would love to read the rest of the book to find out if Holly takes the big step of moving in with Gabriel and whether she decides to speak again on the difficult subject of bereavement, for which she clearly has such a gift.

PS I Love You, was an emotional, deep yet humorous at times book that touched the hearts of everyone who read it.

7 years later here we are with a sample of
the Postscript.
Holly is in a relationship with Gabriel making plans to move in together. Her sister Ciara, with help from Holly is running her own shop with podcasts with audiences that give money to charity.
Holly agrees to help her sister by doing a podcast herself on ‘How to talk about death’.
Friends attend the podcast as well as people intrigued by what can come from Ciara’s shop assistant.

There is interest in what Gerry’s (late husband) letters, received by Holly for ten months following his death could possibly say. Holly shares the last letter with everyone, causing a bit of a stir among listeners of the podcast as well as the immediate audience.
A regular donator to the shop try’s without success to speak with Holly, who is hiding from her, unwilling to discuss Gerry’s letters any further.

One phone call following another contact to delve further into Holly’s ‘story’ and she is left dissolved.

I cannot wait for the rest of this book! I want to know how Holly’s life has changed and what lies ahead for her, her friends and her family now!

Oh wow this is a book I have been waiting for since 2005. I loved PS I Love You - it was one of the first women’s fiction books I read and I remember being a 16 year old girl crying my heart out over Gerry and Holly and their last year together through Gerry’s letters.

I’m excited to see where this new book goes and it was lovely to see zoology giving an interview to Ciara’s Podcast as well as sharing her experiences despite the clear lack of desire to do so.

I really cannot wait for the full book, I’m pretty certain this will be a 5 Star read for me!!!!

I loved PS I love you and i cannot wait to read this book in full.

I am looking forward to reading the story of Holly and wish that this had been a full book!

Roll on September!

In 2005 I had the absolute pleasure of reading PS I Love You and to this day it still stays in my mind as I loved it so much . Fast forward 14 years later and I have just finished the sampler to Postscript and wow it is going to be another fabulous read . I am so excited for this book and can not wait to read it . I have wished for it on Netgalley so fingers crossed as I don’t think I can wait until publication day . This book is going to be a massive 5 star read for me .
