But Holly soon discovers that her husband isn't gone. He comes back to her every month in the form of a letter.
Each letter has a month written on the front, and there's a letter for 1o months in the year. Gerry planned out almost a whole year for Holly for after he had passed away. He doesn't want her to mourn over him. He is the only one who knows Holly better than she knows herself, and he can't let her waste her life away.
In Gerry's letters, he gives Holly instructions ranging from buying a bedside lamp to going on a vacation with her friends. Each time she opens a letter she is filled with the happiness she felt when Gerry was alive. It's almost as if he is still with her.
After she completes each task, her heart mends a little bit more and her life starts piecing itself together again. Even though Gerry is gone, Holly feels his presence every once in a while. When she reads his letters or sees something that reminds her of him, he is suddenly there by her side. But what happens when there are no more letters left?
PS I Love You is creative, sad, heartwarming, and funny all at once. It's a brilliant new twist on an uplifting love story. Anyone who has ever lost a loved one is sure to appreciate this novel. It brings hope to those who need to pick themselves up and start a new life and a new beginning. Also turned into a movie, the film is gratifyingly similiar to the novel and equally as good.
Vampires, romance, and werewolves: the Twilight series has been named a Publisher's Weekly best book of the year, a Teen People "Hot List" pick, a nationally acclaimed bestseller, and has been translated into 20 languages.
Author Stephenie Meyer never imagined her Twilight books would receive this much limelight. What was only a dream to her is now a favorite multimedia image to teens across the world.
After Meyer had a dream about emotionally realistic characters in a captivating field, 
household chores seemed to float to the back of her mind as she raced to write down everything she could remember about her mesmerizing dream.
Three months later she had written Twilight, and with encouragement from her sister, Meyer sent her manuscript out to several publishing companies. Surprisingly soon enough, the publishing company Little, Brown took Twilight under its wings and the book became the most talked about novel in 2005.
Stephenie Meyer received her bachelor's degree in English from Brigham Young University and lives in Arizona with her children and husband. Being a stay-at-home mom of three boys, she never knew that her one little dream could've possibly unlocked a new career and all her newfound success. Twilight hit number 5 on the New York Times bestseller list, New Moon landed the number one spot for more than 25 weeks in a row, Eclipse turned the saga into a worldwide phenomenon, and Breaking Dawn sold 1.3 million copies in 24 hours of it's release. Released on November 21, the Twilight movie debuted the box office at number one with 70 million dollars.
A new twist on the classic Romeo and Juliet, Twilight truly is worth all its hype. It is wonderfully well written and really connects its readers to the characters through emotions. That's what makes all the fans swoon over Edward, the handsome, god-like vampire who says all the right things. Who wouldn't fall in love with the Twilight series? http://stepheniemeyer.com/
