Publisher Description

Rosie and Alex are destined for each other, and everyone seems to know it but them. Childhood friends, then high school buddies, then long-distance confidantes, they barrel forward with their lives on sometimes parallel, occasionally intersecting, and often divergent paths. Yet the paths are always there, well-trod and deep.

Just when it seems that Alex and Rosie might be together forever, everything goes wrong: Alex gets the news that his family is leaving Dublin and moving to Boston. Devastated, the two make plans to apply to colleges in the U.S. She gets into Boston University, Alex gets into Harvard, and everything is falling into place. But on the eve of her departure, Rosie receives news that changes their lives forever. Her dreams for college, Alex, and a glamorous career are dashed as Rosie stays in Dublin while Alex pursues a medical career and a new love in Boston.

But destiny is a funny thing, and in this novel, structured as a series of clever e-mails, letters, notes, and a trail of missed opportunities, Alex and Rosie find out that fate isn't done with them yet. Delightfully unexpected and romantic, Love, Rosie is a novel of enormous heart that will keep listeners laughing and guessing until the very last word.

"It is also the story of childhood love. But of two person who didn't get their happy endings and then realized they needed each other in the end(still a happy ending). A boy and a girl, who thought their whole life would be them two being best of friends, but wrong! They were the best of best! It's really a fantastic childhood story. Not any story, but one written through notes, messages and online chats. What a great way to tell the story!"

    " Likeable characters but I'm sure I rolled my eyes and heaved a sigh at least a dozen times. How many decades and how many missed moments does it take for two best friends to tell each other how they feel for one another? By the time they were in their thirties I almost couldn't take it anymore and considered skipping to the end. (But didn't) Another couple hundred pages and two decades more and it finally happened. Good gosh. I don't know why, it just frustrated me. Probably my mood. 2.5 stars. "

    " In how many ways do we comunicate with each other in todays world. This book is written from just that angle, letter, email's, instant messaging and chatrooms form the whole of Rosie Dunnes life and that is how the story is told. Her life in ink, great book ,bear with it until you can get into the format and when you do you will love it. "

    " I really liked this book because of the easy-to-read conversations of the characters. And I also love the characters. At first, I thought it's not an ideal love story. I think it is a testament to the saying: "if it's meant to be, it will be." "
