Where Rainbows End

I have some issues with “Love, Rosie” as an adaptation of the original epistolary novel, because I think it kind of sanitises the story.

Spoilers below.

Where Rainbows End, which is told through a series of letters, emails, notes, chatrooms is a love story that is earned. It’s a wonderfully frustrating read. You see through the plot constant moments where it feels like it could work out, but because of human reasons, fear, confusion, miscommunication and guilt, it doesn’t. It demonstrates that through these human reactions; of disagreement and conflicts between two people, time marches forward, uncaring and unyielding, all while combining the multitude of butterfly effects throughout. Rosie and Alex even spend a good few years passively-aggressively sending each other christmas/congratulations cards. It’s really funny, in the tragic way.

When the two get together, they are 50 years old. Rosie’s daughter Katie is grown up, while Alex has two sons Josh and Theo, with three failed marriages between them. It’s ultimately a kind story, which shows that love is patient, and that it works out because the two are finally FINALLY on the same page. Yet all throughout there is still other love to be found, from Rosie’s relationship with her child, her parents, her sister, her best friend Ruby and the online Dublin chatroom divorcees. It’s hopeful, that you can find “the one” in any stage of your life, and that everyone’s stages of life is different.

The movie doesn’t have this same grace. It doesn’t allow its characters to make as many mistakes, to age and to learn. Perhaps it’s the format of the film compared to the book, yet it doesn’t do this in my eyes, so it contrasts what I took as its core.

To the most inconsiderate asshole of a friend, I’m writing you this letter because I know that if I say what I have to say to your face I will probably punch you. I don’t know you anymore. I don’t see you anymore. All I get is a quick text or a rushed e-mail from you every few days. I know you are busy and I know you have Bethany, but hello? I’m supposed to be your best friend. You have no idea what this summer has been like. Ever since we were kids we pushed away every single person that could possibly have been our friend. We blocked people until there was only me and you. You probably haven’t noticed, because you have never been in the position I am in now. You have always had someone. You always had me. I always had you. Now you have Bethany and I have no one. Now I feel like those other people that used to try to become our friend, that tried to push their way into our circle but were met by turned backs. I know you’re probably not doing it deliberately just as we never did it deliberately. It’s not that we didn’t want anyone else, it’s just that we didn’t need them. Sadly now it looks like you don’t need me anymore. Anyway I’m not moaning on about how much I hate her, I’m just trying to tell you that I miss you. And that well . . . I’m lonely. Whenever you cancel nights out I end up staying home with Mum and Dad watching TV. It’s so depressing. This was supposed to be our summer of fun. What happened? Can’t you be friends with two people at once? I know you have found someone who is extra special, and I know you both have a special “bond,” or whatever, that you and I will never have. But we have another bond, we’re best friends. Or does the best friend bond disappear as soon as you meet somebody else? Maybe it does, maybe I just don’t understand that because I haven’t met that “somebody special.” I’m not in any hurry to, either. I liked things the way they were. So maybe Bethany is now your best friend and I have been relegated to just being your “friend.” At least be that to me, Alex. In a few years time if my name ever comes up you will probably say, “Rosie, now there’s a name I haven’t heard in years. We used to be best friends. I wonder what she’s doingnow; I haven’t seen or thought of her in years!” You will sound like my mum and dad when they have dinner parties with friends and talk about old times.They always mention people I’ve never even heard of when they’re talking about some of the most important days of their lives. Yet where are those people now? How could someone who was your bridesmaid 20 years ago not even be someone who you are on talking terms with now? Or in Dad’s case, how could he not know where his own best friend from college lives? He studied with the man for five years! Anyway, my point is (I know, I know, there is one), I don’t want to be one of those easily forgotten people, so important at the time, so special, so influential, and so treasured, yet years later just a vague face and a distant memory. I want us to be best friends forever, Alex. I’m happy you’re happy, really I am, but I feel like I’ve been left behind. Maybe our time has come and gone. Maybe your time is now meant to be spent with Bethany. And if that’s the case I won’t bother sending you this letter. And if I’m not sending this letter then what am I doing still writing it? OK I’m going now and I’m ripping these muddled thoughts up.

Your friend, Rosie

Ive started reading Where the rainbows end by Cecelia Ahern and I can feel the pain awaiting me right around the corner. The protag’s name being Rosie hits a little too close to home after Love, Rosie; definitely a great book but broke my heart while reading it, I don’t know if I wanna put myself through that again, lol

It feels a bit similar to what people say about going back to dating again after a painful break up.

“Once again, I don’t quite know where I’m headed. It seems that every few years I’m shoveling up the pieces of my life and starting from scratch all over. No matter what I do or how hard I try I can’t seem to reach the dizzy heights of happiness, success, and security, like so many people do. And I’m not talking about becoming a millionaire and living happily ever after. I mean just reaching a point in my life that I can stop what I’m doing, take a look around me, breathe a sigh of relief, and think ‘I’m where I want to be.’ “

Books I've read in February

The Castaways — Lucy Clarke

Read: 29/01 – 05/02 | Rating: ☆☆☆ | Format: ebook

I really liked the concept of this book and a lot of the plot and writing was very engaging and held my interest, leaving me questioning what was going to happen and in turn making me want to read more. However, I felt the ending of this book didn't really wrap much up and was quite disappointing.

Content warning: death, infertility, murder, sexual assault, alcoholism (mentioned)

Where Rainbows End (Love, Rosie) — Cecelia Ahern

Read: 05/02 – 09/02 | Rating: ☆☆☆☆ | Format: ebook

I really enjoyed this book, I loved the set up of it being a series of emails and letters backwards and forward between the cast of characters over the space of many years, for the most part the characters were very lovable, and the ending was very satisfying. It was a very emotional and reflective story, with a very sweet and cute representation of love of all kinds, friendships, romance, and family. Loved it.

Content warnings: death (mentioned)

Mori dying would be the worst thing for the Port Mafia. He's the only reason why most of the members CHOOSE to stay.

#mori dying would be the bad ending for a lot of people #chuuya? kouyou? akutagawa?#forget it #chuuya nor kouyou WANT to be boss #theres at least two timelines where its proven that its a horrible job to have #the port mafia is basically sunshine and rainbows compared to the previously boss' reign #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bungo sd #my archive
