I read it over the holidays last Christmas, and it was perfect for the occasion.īut the publication everyone is talking about is Postscript, the long-awaited and highly-anticipated sequel to PS, I Love You. Each story was unique and clever and extremely original in both plot and tone. Her last published work was Roar, a collection short stories written from the perspective of 30 different women. She’s honest in her writing and unapologetic when it comes to drawing up lead characters who aren’t always ‘the good guy.’ I would bring a Cecelia Ahern novel with me on holidays, but I wouldn’t describe them as being poolside reads. She has an imagination that allows her to craft plausible plots, while still being entertaining. Her way with words is different from other writers of commercial fiction – it’s smart. Because of her familial background and early success, Ahern has been written off by many when in fact she can write. Because while I thought the movie was one piece of shmlatz after the other, I’ve read other Cecelia Ahern books and enjoyed them. I definitely saw it, and definitely didn’t like it.Īnd that’s why I think I didn’t actually read the book, her debut. The movie caused a sensation and it was a massive hit, despite being panned by critics. It’s been quite some time since the novel was released to international fanfare and quite some time still since the movie version hit screens with its dodgy accents and questionable acting. I can’t remember whether I’ve read PS, I Love You or not. Postscript, by Cecelia Ahern is the long-awaited sequel to bestseller PS, I Love You was released earlier this year.
