It is a love story adapting from David Nicholls' writing.I was little bit amazed reading the review and quickly grabbed the heart-wrenching novel from the bookshop.This masterpiece I must say, an incredible story although I am not the big fan of the author.
This book is a love story like no other.It is not similar to "P/S I love you" book I heart most.The author has caused me a teary moment when I started to read it.He gave the glimpse of one or both lives each year on this date starting from 1988.15TH July 1988( a day before my birth date).
The story begins when Emma Morley and Dexter Mayhew who sometimes are together,sometimes they are not spending the night of college graduation together.A complicated relationship practically same like I used to have except spending the night of college graduation.An odd couple,whereby Dexter is an arrogant while Emma is slightly pompous.Both are opposite and yet still together.
Through ups and down,Emma and Dexter are always there for each other.The relationship so deep and complicated but that's what makes this story so real.The notes they both wrote for each other reminds me all the notes I used to write.You win some and you lose some.Love doesn't always have a happy ending.
The book is telling the reader the irony of love life.So in the end,their relationship,love story over when both decided to split.There is no happy ending in their relationship after going through ups and down together.Emma wants a better life and so Dexter.With frustration,both of them taking another step of their life after twenty years.
The good moral value I have obtained from this book is accepting the reality.The future rose up ahead of Emma, a succession of empty days without Dexter when Dexter found someone else to replace her with Alison.What is Emma going to do with her life without Dexter?Emma is really strong woman I must really admit.She began to walk again,experience new things,love and be loved when she had the chance.
That was general theory of moving on.I felt like I am Emma towards the end of reading the book.In Emma's case,she had said good bye to someone she liked,the first boy she had ever cared for and now she has to accept the fact she won't probably never see Dexter again.
I was in Emma situation when I have to say good bye to a person I loved most for entire life.Reality hurts.It was really tough phase to go through thinking how much the memories we had.I found myself really strong when I deleted the pictures we had for a very long time.I forbid myself from connecting from any other of his family members to keep distance away.I shut all the memories as in I never know him from my previous life.
Life is a learning process.But which is which?Letting go the person who you cared so much for whole life was extremely awful but the lesson you learned from the the past make you a wiser person.
You can live your whole life not realising that what you are looking for is right in front of you.One day has its own way to deliver to all readers.One day you are the most happy person and one day you find out that the happiness you had jeopardized.One day you love that person so much and one day you are marrying someone else you never thought you will.
Therefore,I beg all of you to get this book for pleasant reading.Where ever life takes you one day,it has been written for you purposely.I remember telling everyone in my previous entry that I pray both of us will be grand in future.Well I did.I accept the truth that we are no longer together and we will never be together that's for sure.When life takes you to another another place,be sure that is the best for you.

Hey there. :) I've read this book. It's great literature to begin with. And it is truly a book that you cannot put down once you have it in your hands, obviously! :) Once I have finished reading it, then only I knew that it was filmed and was showing in the cinema few weeks before I had the book with me! Crazy kann? :) Anyway, I am just checking my blog and blog-hopping. Dh lama tak buat! Haha... Take care, babe!! :) xxx hugs~
