I Love You, basis for the popular film starring Hilary Swank—Cecelia Ahern now gives us Thanks for the Memories, a heartwarming tale of déjà vu and second chances. Reminiscent of The Time Traveler’s Wife, Thanks for the Memories is a love story brimming with hope and feeling and enlivened with an enchanting touch of magic.

"Sad at the very beginning, but overall a lighthearted, feel-good gentle read with a touch of fantasy/fairy tale quality. Would recommend to readers wanting Christian fiction, although the spiritual element is more of an undercurrent than an overt narrative force."

— Chrissy (4 out of 5 stars)

    " Just a quick read from the same author that wrote P.S. I Love You. Someone donates blood and the recipient gets his memories and they find each other. I guess I was drawn in by the "New Book" sticker and the cute colors on the cover..... "

    " This book of Cecelia's can be termed 'Weird in a Pleasant way'. But, it might take some time before a reader actually starts taking interest in it. What seems a practically low start, takes beautiful turns, but then at times reader might feel like dozing off again. But, overall, it was a good read. :) "

    " Like the concept of the book: woman gets blood transfusion, but receives more than just blood from her donor - memories, skills she never had before etc. She now wants to find this person she feels so close to - great story line but the two main characteres unfortunally never really come to life.
