From Goodreads ~ Holly couldn't live without her husband Gerry, until the day she had to. They were the kind of young couple who could finish each other's sentences. When Gerry succumbs to a terminal illness and dies, 30-year-old Holly is set adrift, unable to pick up the pieces. But with the help of a series of letters her husband left her before he died and a little nudging from an eccentric assortment of family and friends, she learns to laugh, overcome her fears and discover a world she never knew existed.
Despite the depressing topic, I liked it. It was funny at times and I liked the writing style. And I liked that the ending wasn't what I was expecting, which would have been too predictable.
I think I will read this book. The storyline sounds very charming (and yes...maybe a little depressing). PLUS--I love Gerard Butler! I will definitely keep an eye out for the movie...thanks for the info! Hope you have a nice Tuesday!

Sounds like a good book, but I just am not into reading books that much lately...I don't know what it is...Well, I will wait and see the movie! (lol)
ReplyDeleteI've been looking forward to seeing this movie because I have an embarrassingly large crush on Gerry Butler. Thanks for posting the synopsis.
ReplyDeleteI've got this book in my TBR pile so at some point I'll get around to reading it! I had no idea that they had turned it into a movie though!
ReplyDeleteoooo Gerard Butler! Yummy.
ReplyDeleteHow come I've never heard of Gerald Butler??!!
ReplyDeleteIzzy: I just imdb-ed him. Now I know why you think he's yummy!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good book. I'll have to go see the movie when it comes out.
ReplyDeleteI may have to look for that...when I have a minute to read. LOL
