What happens when two people who are meant to be together can't seem to get it right?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Addictively page-turning, delightfully unexpected and romantic, Love, Rosie is a novel that will keep readers laughing and guessing until the very last page." ( Irish Herald)

Witty, wistful and unique

Anything written by Cecilia Ahern is going to sparkle and shine like sharply cut crystal. You can never predict the plot twists, but you revel in the knowledge that this master storyteller is going to share an amazing adventure with you.

I have enjoyed this book in audio and paperback.

I read this book once. It was loaned to me by one of my sister's friends. I loved it so much that I didn't want to give it back and if I had money at that time I would have bought it from the girl. However she loved the story as much as I so was reluctant to sell it.

When I started audio, I remembered the book and I searched google, amazon and audible to see if it was available. I couldn't find it and I was disappointed. Then I saw that the title was changed and I was even more ecstatic that it was available in audio. I do not mind the email structure of book, I found it refreshing because I have never read a book like that. It made it unique now I have it in audio so I can listen to it whenever I want to. I just goes to show that we can't run from fate and what is meant be will be. Once you set your goals stick to it have fate and your dreams will come through with hiccups and pitfalls along the way.

Darling dialogue!

This a sweet account of life. The letter format is fun! And all characters are vivid.

Mixed feelings....

I enjoyed the overall story, but not that it was written in third person aka: on paper.

Goes on waaaay too long - and the ending doesn't deliver.

I liked this story, but it just went on and on and literally spans FIVE decades for two characters. I found it frustrating bc you knew they'd end up together but it just took SO BLOODY LONG. Like this book could've easily been half as long. The correspondence only storytelling format grew tiresome. Also *spoiler alert* after sitting thru decades of these people's lives and emails, they only finally get together on the last page and Don't. Even. Kiss. Wtfffff?

Love Rosie

This was the most stupid love story ever told why did it take so bleeping long for them to get together surely they could have been together soon and could have had a child together. I want my money back 😡

Frustrating story but SO much fun to listen to!

I must clarify that I absolutely love the movie! With that in mind, you will be very very frustrated with the book. Why?, because if you thought that the movie was frustrating, meaning you wanted to scream at the characters for their lack of communication and luck, well the book makes it all worse!
The story overall is a lot more convoluted that the movie shows and what I absolutely loved about it is how much you learn about the different characters. Once you pass the initial shock of the story being told through letters, messages and chat conversations, you will learn to love the relationships the characters build. I can honestly say that once I finished it, I've found myself missing them.

A surprisingly addictive story

The format of this book is unusual with the entirety of the story told through the character's written communications (email, instant message, text, and chat room) which I initially thought would be distracting and difficult to follow but I couldn't have been more wrong. I was pulled completely into the lives of the characters and could not pull myself away. I'm so sad it's over.

Not like ps I love you

Struggled to finish it. Loved the performance. It's is just not her best work. I was counting down to when it would. Be done.

Love this movie!

I love this movie, so I had to read the book. Found it on Audible. I didn’t like the way they announced who was speaking. They should had used different peoples voices. I found it a little hard to follow.
