I liked the concept of an invisible friend becoming her love interest. Never read anything like that before. Really sweet.

A cute story about a woman and an invisible friend. Elizabeth is a control freak with a messy family history. Her adopted son (actually her nephew) comes home one day with a friend, Ivan, that she can't see. Ivan usually works with children but Elizabeth is a special case. Soon she can see him but doesn't realize that Luke is the only other person who can see him also. Ivan and Elizabeth teach each other a lot about living.
A sweet story. The audio book was great; there are two readers, both with Irish accents.
And it is also clean :)

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...

This book was boring and had strange characters. Usually I can get into stories where you have to suspend disbelief, but this is not one of them. The premise (an invisible friend for an adult) is not quite believable, but I just kept reading to see what would happen. Not worth my time, though I did finish it. Ending was so-so.

I wanted to love this and after reading the synopsis, I thought I would, so I was disappointed when I didn’t.
It all felt a bit confusing with characters, timeline jumping and what was real and what wasn’t.
Real shame

A nice imaginative story, but nowhere near as good as P.S. I Love You or Dear Rosie. I had a difficult time getting in to the book and it didn't maintain my interest that well. Ahern can and has done better.

I love all of Cecelia Ahern's books, with the exception of this and The Gift. I just really couldn't get into it, and the characters were really annoying. I have up with this book a few weeks ago and when I got back to reading it, I had to speed read the second half of the book... I couldn't wait to finish it, for all of the wrong reasons. I also really didn't enjoy the parts where Ivan went to 'work' with all of his fellow imaginary friends, it felt too much like a children's book. Also, the phrase 'by far my favourite' was very overused.
