krystianna 's review for:
Love, Rosie
by Cecelia Ahern
I loved this book so much! Rosie & Alex were just so perfect. My full review will be up soon!
Updated February 9, 2015
I picked this book up because I had been seeing the movie trailer around the internet a lot and it seemed like something I'd really enjoy. Plus, it had Sam Claflin and Lily Collins! How could it not be good!?!
In this book, Rosie and Alex are best friends. They've been best friends since like age 5, which is kind of adorable. They always do everything together and they're always by the other's side. Then, when they both turn 16, Alex finds out that his family is being moved all the way to Boston from Dublin, Ireland, which is a huge surprise. They really don't want to be separated, so they stay in contact.
This book is literally one of my new favorites. I've had such good luck so far this year when it comes to books-I've had almost all 5 star reviews which is pretty outstanding. Love, Rosie was such a great read. It took me a while to read because I had read it while I was sick and passing out every five minutes, but this book was on my mind a lot. I felt so much for the characters, for everything that both Alex and Rosie were going through. They go their whole lives not exactly being happy. This book takes place over about 40 years, which is pretty interesting to read about. I'm only 17, so it's different for me to read about adult live because it's not all that relatable, but I felt so much.
This book really made me realize how if you feel something for someone, you should just tell them. These two went their whole lives being unhappy when if they had just told each other what they felt for one another right off the bat, their lives would have been so different. This book also shows all the struggles and difficulties that come with life. You may have all these big, grand dreams that you want to achieve but the road to achieving them won't come without many hardships. You will always be knocked down, but it's best to try to move on and get back up again. This book also shows that even if it takes 40 years, the wait is worth it if it's to achieve your dreams.
I'm so excited for this movie to be released in America (it was released in the UK like 4 months ago! America is so behind :/). I'm definitely going to see it the day that it comes out, and maybe a few times after that. I'm just so happy that I gave this book a read and that it found its way into my hands. It's written through e-mails, instant messages, and letters, which I didn't know going in. I love reading books like that. I'm really interested in seeing how this will be portrayed through a movie.
