This was surprisingly sad, but I did enjoy this. I don't think it's for everyone, I think you need to have a little imagination. I loved Elizabeth she definitely deserves the world and the fact that

Spoiler

Ivan wasn't real and it was in her head was just heartbreaking.

I do feel like I could understand it, she feels so lonely and is lonely through her entire life. She takes care of everyone and she doesn't have anyone caring for her. But I did like how it ended, on a positive note, she ended up happy, that's all I wanted.

So when a writer is about to write a book , a romantic one, what does he have in mind?
1)the usual stuff , you know boy meets girl, boy likes girl , they fall in love, the usual problems: parents don't agree,a friend is jealous and makes problems,one of the lovers is sick ouch..etc
2) the kinda unusual stuff, girl sees boy, he's a bad guy, interesting she tries to find his good side, and she manages to fix him and fall in love with him in the process , his past catches up to him , bad guys want to ruin his life...etc
3) girl sees boy , he's good looking, he's bad he's very Interesting but he has a dark secret and by dark i mean that he's some kind of supernatural creature , but here is the thing we used ALL of them:
vampire boy/human girl checked
vampire girl/human boy checked
werewolf boy/human girl checked
werewolf girl ugh /human boy checked
vampire girl /werewolf boy checked
zombie boy/human girl checked
so let's be honest what is left?
uh uh i know, i know let's have an imaginary friend and a human, you mean a love story of children? no grown ups, huh?

Lähdin lukemaan tätä kirjaa, koska tarvitsin jotain aivoja nollaavaa, helppoa ja mukavaa luettavaa - kirjallisuutta, jolloin yleensä turvaudun Ahernin puoleen. Aloitin, enkä pystynyt lopettamaan. Luin kirjan yhdeltä istumalta, ja vain harvojen kanssa olen itkenyt yhtä paljon. Todella koskettava tarina ystävyydestä, tunteista ja perheestä Ahernille tutulla, ihanalla maagisella realismilla. Tämä muistuttaa niistä lapsuuden hetkistä, kun mielikuvitusystävät olivat tavallinen osa arkea.

I found it quite hard to get into, maybe it was all a bit too "magical" and unreal for me. However the ending really moved me and made it all worth it.

I don't know why I always end up loving and hating Cecelia Ahern at the same time. That won't stop me though from reading all her books. This is just my third book by her (and I still have one with me). Seriously, I love how she writes, how her creative mind works, how she was able to make me believe that there's Ekam Eveileb world, Elbisivin person that's Ivan. Who's best friend to anyone whom he's assigned to be best friends with. And who, eventually fell in love with Elizabeth. But you know it's not possible since it's just the three of them who sees each other. And it just won't work. So I cried. Cried to the point where I was saying to the book "you're just a book." xx

I found this entertaining but lacking a little on the interest level. I've found some of her novels are just a little too predictable...but usually still enjoyable in a chick flick kind of way. This one was a little odd but also fun....it deals with imaginary friends which was an interesting twist....it just didn't grab my attention as much as I would have liked...

adventurous inspiring lighthearted reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

My favourite Cecelia Ahern book. Amazing story, yet quite sad too.

Will Cecelia Ahern ever not make me cry? Probably not.

This was another beautiful story filled with imagination and joy. I loved it. It was happy and lovely and sad at the same time. It was a lovestory, but then again it wasn't. It was about loving yourself and accepting yourself and choosing happiness over sadness. This book had a great moral and I can highly recommend it to everyone. This was my fourth Cecelia book and again, it was a definite win.
