Rosie and Alex are best friends. They dreamed of big adventures together, like going to America and starting a new life, much different than their lives in Ireland. But Alex’s family moves away, to America and Rosie is left behind in her small Dublin town. Through emails, Instant Messages and letters, Rosie and Alex grow up and live their lives, hoping one day fate will bring them together again.I’ll admit that I never read or saw the author’s big hit P.S. I Love You. I hear it’s very good.I read this book because I saw this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zL3YJKygd4Love, RosieThe film is coming out end of 2014 and I can’t wait. Naturally, I had to read the book first!Funny enough, my husband was out all day and I was more than happy to sit down with this book and read!There’s a lot of wonderful things about Love, Rosie. (Originally titled Where Rainbows End.) The emails and Instant Messages are clever and funny, getting each character’s personality across clearly. It does read like a script or a play, dialogue driven and a fast moving plot. I love Rosie, who is young and naive but has to grow up very fast. Her story is one of challenge and self discovery. Of course I love Alex, who is misguided and somewhat selfish. I wanted to slap him so many times.The story is about how they keep missing each other. One is engaged, one is married. One is stuck in Dublin while another is in Boston. There are a lot of missed chances and heavy silences. While I did enjoy the book, I think it was a bit long. By the time I got to halfway, I felt like the things keeping them apart were happening to them again.
