When do you stop? When do you stop loving someone who’s gone? When do you stop grieving, hurting, or missing them? When do you stop looking at their pictures, blaming yourself, or shedding tears late at night when no one else is around? When do you stop feeling alone in a crowd?

The truth is, you don’t. You never stop loving them, even after they’re gone. You never stop grieving. Losing your best friend leaves an indelible mark that no amount of makeup or bravado can hide. So, take all the time you need.

Over time, you learn to smile despite the pain. You learn to love yourself again and to forgive yourself, but you will always miss them. You may not look at their pictures as often, but the way they smiled at you will forever be etched in your heart.

Book Review:

"P.S. I Love You" had me emotionally drained from its very first pages, capturing the profound love Gerry had for Holly. The story revolves around Holly's journey of standing on her own two feet, motivated to move on through the letters Gerry left her for the ten months following his death. Each letter is a gentle nudge toward healing, encouraging her to embrace life again. But then, the letters stop, and we’re left wondering: what comes next? 

This book beautifully explores the complexities of love and loss, asking us what it means to truly live after experiencing such deep heartache. Holly’s journey is a testament to the reality that grief doesn’t just fade away; it evolves. With time, you learn to smile despite the hurt, cherishing the memories even as you navigate the pain of missing someone who was once your everything.

Holly grapples with questions that resonate deeply: When do you stop? How do you move forward while holding on to the past? It’s a universal struggle, one that many of us face in our own lives. The raw emotion and the intricacies of her experience make it relatable for anyone who has experienced loss.

Ultimately, "P.S. I Love You" isn’t just a story about love and grief; it’s about the resilience of the human spirit. It teaches us that while we may never stop loving those we’ve lost, we can learn to carry that love with us as we forge ahead in life. It’s a beautiful reminder that it’s okay to grieve and that healing doesn’t mean forgetting.

This book is a heartfelt exploration of love’s enduring power, and it will stay with you long after the last page is turned.
