P.S. I Love You by Cecelia Ahern

2.0

---

Picked this up because I enjoyed the movie adaptation so much, and, well -- I'm glad I saw the movie first, because I wouldn't have gone to see based on this book. I mean, it was fine. The premise is engaging -- dead man helping his grieving wife to move on with her life through a series of letters he left for her -- but the writing was just so painfully purple that I nearly chucked it across the room a couple of times.

I never thought I'd find myself saying this, but: go see the movie and skip the book.
