SPOILERS BELOW!
Ahern is the queen of romantic feel good chick lit with a dash of magic. PS I love you, her first novel, has a special place in my heart, her second, Where rainbows end, is my favorite of hers, this offering, is in my top three of her novels. I love the magical elements Ahern adds in. whether its Gerry from beyond the grave, a special silence, an invisible friend, a prophetic diary or as in this read, shared memories. Joyce is a lovely character, her warmth spills of the page, her best friends are witty, her Dad is the kind of man you want to adopt. Her loss is heart-aching but her journey into rebuilding herself keeps the pages turning.

| Also the cover is stunning. |
This is a solid four stars for me, the idea that memories and pieces of our lives can be shared through blood, transplants etc and giving others a new perspective on their own lives was fascinating. As always it's set in Aherns home, Ireland through we do crossover to London. Her formula is winning, Ahern makes you fuzzy inside, tearful and always happy at the end.
