Thanks to Amazon Publishing UK for the ARC!
Wow! This was sad, beautiful and romantic at the same time. I wasn't so sure at first if I would enjoy it, because I didn't know the author before. I also try to avoid stories of people dying from cancer but, for some reason, I just really felt that I needed to read this one. After the first cassette, I knew it would be one of my favorite books. Catherine and Sean made me cry so many times. I simply couldn't put it down. Everything sounded so real to me that I actually had to check if it was indeed just fiction. Loved it!

Very Enjoyable Read
Enjoyed this book very much. Haven't read much in the last few years but after receiving a Kindle for Christmas this was a great reintroduction to the world of books.
Was easy to read and can't recommend enough. Looking forward to Mr Alexander's 'Three Christmases' next!

This book is a bit like a brutal version of PS I Love You. 29 cassette tapes that Catherine has left for Sean and she pulls no punches with what she tells him.

Really enjoyed this book. It gave me very much “P.S I love you” vibes.

I loved Nick Alexander’s look at families and relationships. Nick and his grown daughter April are faced with the incredibly difficult challenge of moving forward after the loss of Catherine, their beloved wife and mother.
The story is beautiful! It delivers the reader through the story of love from beginning to end. It’s filled with the realities of nervousness as we move through life, the falling in love, the falling out of love, and the falling together.

When a woman dies of cancer she leaves her husband a box containing 29 envelopes, each containing a single photo and a cassette recording, with the instruction to open one each week. She reveals some memories he remembers, though not always in the same way she did, and she reveals others he didn't know about. It begs the question, how well do we know the person we are married to. A good read, likeable characters, and quite British.
