Wow. That was kind of exhausting to read.
I was not the biggest fan of the books style. The way it was written, was kind of exhausting to follow along the story and understand all the time jumps.
The ending made it worth it though.
So the book is parted in 5 Parts. The last part made it allllllll worth it.

I watched the film before I read the book which meant I knew the main plot points, but really liked it regardless. It look a while to get into as it is all in letter form which was something new to me. It was a vibes not plot kinda book so the pace was veryyy slow. But better than the film !

It's actually a good book. Tapi sayangnya buku ini disajikan bukan dalam format narasi. Karena saya adalah tipe yang lebih senang membaca narasi daripada kumpulan surel dan surat serta percakapan daring dua orang, saya kurang mendalami dunia ini ketika membacanya. But it's good even the plot is pretty cheesy. I haven't watched the movie and I'd love to watch it sometime.

Just finish "Love, Rosie" for the second time today. Yes second time, why that ? Glad you ask ^^
Turns out I already read this book years ago in french and I didn't remebered it, it's a shame.
I knew there was a movie coming out with actors I like so I was like "Yeah I will read the book first, obviously"
You know what's going to happen but It's really well played.
You have to be found of Alex and Rosie and even a little or BIG TIME frustrated by their behaviour sometimes.
I think that the correspondance type of writing was really good. It's fun and fresh. It's like you are with them all along.
I recommend this book to everyone, because even if I read it for the second time without knowing it, I will be gald to re re re read it in couple of years from now just for th kick of it <3.

I really enjoyed this book and the layout. Almost gave it a 4 star but it dragged a little bit about 3/4ths of the way through and the ending is a bit anticlimactic. But. A solid read

Rosie Dunne by Cecilia Ahern was this month's selection for my online book club. Oh, and one note, this book is also called Love, Rosie and/or Where Rainbows End in the UK. The love I have for this book is primarily because of the unique format. Everything is told through correspondence - letters, emails and instant messages. In other words, there is nothing, but these communications to tell Rosie's story. Rosie's story revolves around her long-time friendship with Alex, as well as the unexpected twists and subsequent unrealized of her life - both in her relationship with Alex and other things. The storytelling in this one was so great, and I devoured this book as I had to know what happened to Rosie next - mainly as it related to Alex. I definitely did not expect to love this one as much as I did, and I'm happy I can now spread the word on its quirkiness.

I can’t remember exactly when I read this (so the year might be totally wrong) but it was so good I read it all day while at my Dad’s house. I loved how the characters just kept missing each other and how it all paid off in the end
