PS: I Love You by Cecelia Ahern

How deeply have you felt the loss of some loved one in life? The world for once feels shattered and every moment just brings back the memories. The only question we ask is why me. I am not a fan of romantic love stories, but this book is so compelling and satisfying that I went on turning the pages with watery eyes.

She needed to talk, she needed to cry, she needed to vent all her frustrations and disappointments.

The world falls apart for Holly with the death of her husband, Gerry, because of a brain tumour. However, even in his death, he knew how much grief and suffering will it cause to his wife, who could not imagine her life without him. So he leaves a series of beautiful letters for her, ending with PS, I love you. Each month with a new letter, Gerry makes her take some new adventures to let go of the past and move on with her life, without him. Things like taking a job, going on with a vacation, etc, till she starts enjoying her life again. Of the most, it is a beautiful tale of unlearning the things that we don't want to let go of. 

It makes you imagine your life without your loved ones, and for that, it makes you cry and sad. But it also is a tail of hope and makes you appreciate your loved ones more.

P.S- I love you all

Book Review: 'All The Light We Cannot See' by Anthony Doerr

"Open your eyes and see what you can do with them before they close forever." War Stories have a different place in my heart. All the suffering and pain, I wonder whether it is worth it. Everybody loses the war in the end. All The Light We Cannot See is one such story. Not a great one, but a good one indeed. Set in the time of World War 2, the story is the coming together of two worlds. It shuffles between the world of Marie-Laure, a young girl in Paris, and Werner, a German boy, at a time when both the countries are at war. Marie-Laure, who became blind early in her childhood, lives with her father in Paris. He works for the National Museum of History in charge of its numerous locks. The other world belongs to Werner, a German boy and an orphan. Enthused by science since childhood, he is very skilled at repairing radios and was appointed to the brutal Hitler Army to detect and destroy the enemy's broadcasting messages.  With Germany's invasion of Paris, Marie-Laure a...
