Hi this is my first post in this forum, i hope this is the right place.
I force myself to read english books since i need to learn or better to practice with english language, i want to go to study abroad, just to instance: i read The Photograph by Penelope Lively in english, i really enjoyed that book and i couldn't stop reading it, however i found her english not so easy for my knowledges, so at first i took notes and wrote down in the pages all the terms i didn't know and the italian translations ( just curious to know if any of you do that also ) later i was very curious to go ahead with the story, so i gave up the translation and as a consequence: i got and understood the story and the general meanings, but i lost several of the details ... now i was thinking about reading PS, I Love You by Cecilia Ahern, i haven't ever read anything of her and i wanted to know if you would advise this book considering my english knowledges and needs.

Bye.
