About this listen

High school sweethearts Holly and Gerry were the kind of married couple that could finish each other's sentences, and even when they fought (like over who would be the one to get out of bed to turn off the light each night) they laughed. Holly didn't know where she'd be without Gerry. No one did. And that's how "The List" started...as a joke. If anything were to happen to Gerry, he'd have to leave Holly a list of things she must do in order to make it through the day in one piece.

Then, at the age of 30, Holly experiences the unimaginable. Gerry is diagnosed with a terminal illness. Holly doesn't know how she'll go on without him, and in truth, she doesn't want to. But Gerry has different plans for Holly. Two months after Gerry's death, Holly emerges from her house to retrieve a mysterious package. When she opens it up, she finds that Gerry was true to his word. He's left her "The List": a letter for each of the ten months following his death, each signed, "PS, I love you." The letters instruct Holly to perform a series of unexpected tasks. Some leave her laughing out loud, others shaking in her boots. Whether performed alone or with her best friends, the tasks ultimately show Holly a much larger world than the one she's been forced to leave behind.

Surrounded by friends with razor-sharp wits and a raucously endearing family that smothers, loves, and drives her crazy, Holly wobbles, weaves, weeps, and jokes her way around a new life. From a fresh new voice in fiction, PS, I Love You is a tender, funny, unexpectedly romantic novel that listeners will treasure in their hearts and minds long after the story ends.

I enjoyed the MOVIE better!

Usually, I prefer the book to the movie in about 99.9% of the books but in this case I preferred the movie. I still enjoyed reading the book and I think that the narration possibly had something to do with why I enjoyed the movie better but not sure.

OK, I hope the movie is better!

This is the typical sad love story book that gets made into a movie. It was an OK read but not great.

This book was a fun read

I liked this book, however it was kind of a sad slow book. It did not keep my interest in the fact that I had to know what would happen next but I did enjoy it. Not as good as Love, Rosie though

I liked it a lot!

I read this only because the movie was coming out. It was such a touching story about love after death. I was worried that I was going to cry through the whole thing, but it became more hopeful about a third of the way through. I can tell the movie is going to be way different. Hopefully, it is still as good as the book.

PS I LOVED IT!

Loved it all. The zany characters, quirky humor and heartfelt grief. I like the idea of the List. Hated leaving the car. Ended up bringing the last disc in the house to finish.

Enjoyable and Uplifting

I hesitated purchasing this audiobook because of some of the movie and audiobook reviews I read. However, I am glad that I bought it. I really enjoyed the story line. Sure, it reminded me of "Sam's Letters to Jennifer", and others, but I liked it.

Sweet but not smothering

Since the listener knows going in that the story deals with the death of a young husband, he/she should be prepared for grieving. The sweet touch here comes in the form of family and friends prepared to go the distance with the widow in some funny and unusual ways brought about by a list written and left by the dying husband. The story takes place in Ireland and the reader does a commendable job of communicating both the lilt of the language and the subtlety of meanings. Widow, Holly, is a character for whom one wants to root; her friends are funny, devoted people one wishes would populate her own life; her family is open and supportive; and there is a depth of young love demonstrated here that's refreshing. Well done!
