I don't really have a favourite author as I don't read a lot but i enjoyed reading "PS I Love You" by Cecelia Ahern so I'll write about her.
5 interesting facts on Cecelia Ahern:
1) Cecelia Ahern is an Irish Novelist who is the daughter of the former Irish Taoiseach Bertie Ahern.
2) She is currently dating David Keoghan, an athlete and Olympic hopeful.
3) In 2004, when Cecelia Ahern was twenty-one, her first novel "PS I Love You" was the number 1 bestseller in Ireland (for 19 weeks), the United Kingdom, U.S., Germany and Holland. It is now sold in over forty countries.
4) Her second book, "Where Rainbows End" (U.S. Rosie Dunne), also reached number 1 in Ireland and the UK, and won the German CORINE Award in 2005.
5) Cecelia is the co-creator (along with Donald Todd) and producer for the ABC comedy Samantha Who? starring Christina Applegate, Jean Smart, Jennifer Esposito, Barry Watson, Kevin Dunn, Melissa McCarthy and Tim Russ.
I enjoy reading her book as it is full of emotions showing how a guy help his wife to get over his death by writing her letters months after he passed away. It is very touching with each letter ending with "PS I love you". The storyline is very good and interesting and she describes well and clearly. The story is very enjoyable to read. Highly recommended to those not interested in reading like me.
