Love Actually
In London, Christmas is coming and the people in this story have love on their minds. Some have found love; some have lost it. Some accept their loneliness; others live in hope. Even the new British prime minister’s thoughts are not always on his job – because love, actually, is all around us.

November 15, 2013I enjoyed this story as I did "Bridget Jones's Diary." There are lots of character's names you have to memorize but it is not so hard. There are also lots of love stories going on and they are some connections with each other. I like a story of Jamie and Aurelia the best.

Cute and super short (only later i realized that this is an educational novel for ESL readers, not the actual screenplay for the movie)...
Loved the movie and this is basically a short retelling of it in simple English...

This is the best favorite film for me. I'm so glad to finish reading this book in English. When I read it, I can always imagine the scene of this film. I love it and I want to read it again and again.

I read this in preparation for maybe watching the movie. The movie was talked about in my book club, so I thought I'd look at it and see what I think.
The book is obviously written for an ESL adult, or an older emerging reader, and contains questions and assignments at the back of the book.
A very helpful character map is included at the beginning of the book. I imagine this will be handy while watching the movie.

Libro leído para las clases de inglés y leído en un día. Muy facilito de leer y que me ha hecho recordar a la película que hace mucho que no revisiono y me ha dado muchísimas ganas.
Una lectura divertida y tierna que recomiendo.

This book was a gift from my grandmother. I didn't know there was a book about it until I get it and I haven't seen the movie yet, so I started it without great expectations.
It was surprisingly good. In Love Actually, many love stories are tangled together. There are a lot of characters, but it's not difficult to remember who is who, since the narration involving every single one of them is short and recurrent.
I love when different stories are presented at the beginning of a book and they are bonded at the end, so that's probably why I enjoyed it.
I'm not giving it more than three stars because the ending was a cliché itself.
A very light read to pass cold winter days.
