My opinion
At start i didn’t konw wich book i should took in the library, but than i saw LOVE ACTUALLY! I’d rememberd that i already saw the film.So, i took that book.
I think that book is very interesting for people like me, who loves romantic stories with happy end.
It bother me only, that story is happening on a lot of different places. It’s like you’ve reading ten different stories.But when you look from the different side you see how good the writer is.
I’d really enjoyed reading that book. Although it’s confused me different end like in the movie but who cares that. They are both very good.
