Rosie Dunne and Alex Stewart have been friends since they were 5 years old. Years later Alex and his family move to Boston. Rosie plans to follow him there but something happens which forces Rosie to abandon her plans. As the years go by, the pair keep in regular contact but their friendship is put under tremendous strain through a variety of things.

Following on from Cecelia Ahern's hugely successful debut, PS, I Love You, I was always going to be wary that her second novel (and subsequent novels) wouldn't live up to the hype.

One of the things that appeals to me about the books written by Cecelia Ahern is that they are all so different. Where Rainbows End is no exception, the style of writing alone is different from PS I Love You and any other book she has written since. The book is formed of a series of conversations in a variety of forms be it letters, emails, instant messenger conversations and many others.

The two main characters are Rosie and Alex, the beginning of the book starts with them as kids and shows you that they have been friends for a very long ...  Read the complete review

They are ...  Read the complete review

Where Rainbows End After watching P.S I Love You at the start of 2008, I made the mistake of buying not only the P.S I Love You book, but also about three other Cecelia Ahern books as well. After reading P.S I Love You, I went onto a few other books and quickly found, that Cecelia Ahern's writing style was not for me, and only a few of the books were worth reading. This one in my opinion was probably the weakest one of hers that I have read. ====== The Plot ====== Rosie and Alex have been friends since they were very little, they have done everything together, and as they begin to grow up, their friendship doesn't ...  Read the complete review
