 Must read December 1, 2008

Another great book from Cecelia Ahern.
It will make you laugh and cry. A definate must-read!
magical and heart warming!! December 1, 2008
I sat and read this book all in one go on a 6 hour flight home, despite needing sleep! Its brilliant, magical and heart warming.
I loved P.S I love you and Rainbows end, the others after that i didn't like, in fact gave up reading! (didn't even buy Thanks for the memories!) But The Gift is truly, truly lovely. There is a very powerful message at the end which i wont reveal but if you want a book to make you think, cry and become addicted too - this is for you!!
Absolute brilliance, words twisted together to warm the heart.
Couldn't put down - as usual! November 30, 2008
I love Cecelia Ahern's writing - donlt think she's written a book yet where i haven't had a few teary moments at some point.
Loved that fact that this was a hard back and so beautifully packaged with the real red bow around it - I almost didn't was to open it but i was glad i did.
Cecelia normally writes about a main female character from a female perspective. In this book it was a male character who the story centred around and I found this a little strange but intriguing. It took me a couple of chapters to get into it but i realised i was hooked when my boss asked me if i was planning to do any work that day - i'd overshot my lunch by a good 20 minutes and hadn't even noticed. I don't want to give any of the story away but suffice to say there was a few funny moments and also a few tears shed by the end. What can i say - just buy it!
Christmas message November 25, 2008

Having just seen parts of her father's biography on RTE (Ireland's National TV station) and it noting that he was quite the absent father, I have to wonder how much of this is wishful thinking on the part of Cecelia Ahern.
It's a story about a boy who throws a semi-frozen turkey through a window who gets told a story about another man. A workaholic who learns lessons about the important things in life and who realises that life is now not tomorrow.
I can see this one splitting it's audience. It's unsubtle in it's message and pretty obvious in it's heart-string tugging. A little too obvious for my tastes, I'm sure other people's mileage may vary.
The packagaing is cute, the ribbon isn't a permanent part of the cover though and as it's usually shrink wrapped the lack of cover details makes it hard to decide what it's all about.
