After reading ps, i love you I was looking for another book by the same author hoping for it to be just as good, and I was pleasently surprised. I was astonished at how a book could be written - and easy to understand, completely as a series of e-mails and letters. At first I found it quite confusing however as I got further through the book I began to find it easier and really enjoyed it. It was an easy read and i would recommend it to anyone!

Frustrating!
When I started this book, I skimmed through the first chapter because I found the letter writing format so annoying and wanted to get to the main story, but unfortunately the format continued right up to the last but one chapter and what could have been a good story was just superficial and frustrating, and the characters one-dimensional. Plus it's a bit far fetched because the book spans fifty years, which would mean that, unless the book is also partly set in the future, they were emailing and IMing in the sixties/seventies/eighties - I don't think so!

Given the pedantic way much of the book was written, the last part was rushed and anticlimactic in comparison; we were supposed to be rooting for Alex and Rosie to finally get together, but when this eventually happened it barely got a paragraph.

Also, minor niggle, the consistent mis-spelling by Alex (and later Katie) of "no" instead of "know" was unbelievable and really irritating - the man's a heart surgeon, so one would expect him to have a modicum of intelligence!

Read this over 2 nights, couldn't put it down.
After enjoying PS I Love You I couldn't wait to see what Cecilia Ahern had in store, so I purchased Where Rainbows End. I was not disappointed, from page one I was hooked. This book is written in a series of letters/emails of which I laughed and cried whilst reading. I would definitely recommend this book.
