P.S. I Love You talks about the delightful and unique love story of Gerry and Holly. The book covers events from the very beginning, starting from the inception of their relationship. The book details the way they were inseparable childhood sweethearts destined to be together in a loving relationship. It traces how Gerry becomes aware of his terminal illness and how he finally succumbs to a brain tumor. Gerry has a couple of months to love Holly enough for her to be satiated for the rest of her life.
P.S. I Love You portrays how Gerry stays brave and dedicated to Holly, while he is alive and how she recalls the old happy memories of their love, fights and playful moments.

The author talks in the most lucid manner about the topic of death, a horrible fact that is hard to face.
