1 out of 5 stars Frustrating!   August 14, 2008
 2 out of 5 found this review helpful

When I started this book, I skimmed through the first chapter because I found the letter writing format so annoying and wanted to get to the main story, but unfortunately the format continued right up to the last but one chapter and what could have been a good story was just superficial and frustrating, and the characters one-dimensional. Plus it's a bit far fetched because the book spans fifty years, which would mean that, unless the book is also partly set in the future, they were emailing and IMing in the sixties/seventies/eighties - I don't think so!

Given the pedantic way much of the book was written, the last part was rushed and anticlimactic in comparison; we were supposed to be rooting for Alex and Rosie to finally get together, but when this eventually happened it barely got a paragraph.

Also, minor niggle, the consistent mis-spelling by Alex (and later Katie) of "no" instead of "know" was unbelievable and really irritating - the man's a heart surgeon, so one would expect him to have a modicum of intelligence!



4 out of 5 stars Read this over 2 nights, couldn't put it down.   July 31, 2008
After enjoying PS I Love You I couldn't wait to see what Cecilia Ahern had in store, so I purchased Where Rainbows End. I was not disappointed, from page one I was hooked. This book is written in a series of letters/emails of which I laughed and cried whilst reading. I would definitely recommend this book.


5 out of 5 stars Such a lovely book, I couldn't put it down.   July 31, 2008
I have read all of Cecelia Aherns books and this one is truly wonderful. It is on level with P.S I Love You.i could not put this book down and had it finished in 2 nights. Great Great Great!


5 out of 5 stars Brilliant!   July 22, 2008
I was chuffed to bits when this book arrived, and rightly so! It's completely different to P.s. I love you, but it's still a great book. I was hooked from page one! It was a great book, and I'm so glad I've found Cecelia Ahern, all the books I've read by her so far have been fab! Great author and can't wait to read the rest of her stuff.


5 out of 5 stars Magical...   July 7, 2008
I borrowed Ps I Love You from a friend and its magic made me want to read more from Cecelia Ahern, this story is so sweet and touching, and i found the format of letters, emails, IM etc very unique, i loved the beginning where rosie and alex are younger and it made me giggle! If you want something magical to read, something you won't be able to put down and something that's a perfect holiday read, this is perfect!
