To me, PS I Love You was indeed a bittersweet read. So, my fav of Ahern’s books is actually, Love, Rosie (ya, I got the pinkish cover one). Sometimes we look at love elsewhere when all the while it can be right in front of us, or all along our lives.. I can’t wait for The Book of Tomorrow in mass paperback, heard it’s coming soon. (“,)
Thanks for sharing.
