If you guys are looking for a good cry, this book is the choice. This book is a perfect blend of sentiments, love, emotions, loss of love and finally regain of life. It is the debut novel of Ahern and by far one of her finest works. This one is one of my most favorite novels.
If you like love stories you will certainly love this one. But let me remind you, it is heartbreaking and if you don't have tears in your eyes while reading this book, don't consider yourself a human. Seriously.
Holly is devastated after the death of her love, her husband Gerry. She has the support of her family and friends but it can never be enough to fill this void in her life. She starts losing hope because she can never imagine a life without Gerry. As the pain and destruction engulfs her, her 30th birthday looms and she gets a present from Gerry, a bundle of letters guiding her into her new life without Gerry. He guides her regarding the things she should do and the way she should embrace life as it is.
The letters in particular are written too beautifully. They are eloquent enough to describe the love of Gerry for Holly. The last letter is too emotional and made me really cry my eyes out.
A movie has also been filmed based on this novel but I would suggest to read the novel first. Any movie based on a book only gives you ten percent of the actual content. If you want to savor the literature, read the book.
This book is one of my favorites and I am sure it will become yours too.

Sometimes it's about living life one letter at a time.
