    Chicken Soup for the Soul: True Love: 101 Heartwarming and Humorous Stories about Dating, Romance, Love and Marriage

    ABOUT THE BOOK:

    Everyone loves a good love story. And we all love stories about how the love started and blossomed. This fun new book about dating, romance, love, and marriage, will make readers laugh and cry, and is guaranteed to inspire a renewed search for that special someone or open the heart a little more to the love already found. Stories of how couples met, when “they knew,” good and bad dates, proposals, maintaining the relationship, second chances, and all the other ups and downs of love, romance, and marriage will entertain, encourage, and warm the hearts of all readers. A great Valentine’s, wedding, or romantic gift!

    MY REVIEW:

    This book could not have came at a better for me, as I read it to get in the spirit of Valentines Day.  It is an adorable book of 2-3 page stories that focus on love, dating, romance, and marriage.  This book begins with an introduction from Kristi Yamaguchi (famous ice skater) and her hockey playing husband, telling how they met and fell in love.  It was a nice way to start the book and showed that celebrities experience the whole love, dating, and marriage thing just like the rest of us!

    Throughout the book, I laughed and cried at all the tales that made me feel both relied that it didn’t happen to me and surprised that I was also in the similar situation.  The book makes you feel giddy inside and since it is real-life stories, it is not like a romance novel, just like two friends talking!  I enjoyed reading a story here and there and picking it up to read all 101 stories!

    BUY IT: You can find Chicken Soup for the Soul books at your local bookstore or at Amazon. You can also check out the Chicken Soup for the Soul website for more information and you can even submit your own stories there!

      I read reviews and information on Story Behind the Songs and find that one very interesting. There are a lot of interesting songs that I would like to know more about. Why were some of the songs written? Do they pertain to specific people or events in a song writers lfe? Seems like an interesting read. Thanks.

      My favorite chicken soup book so far has got to be Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover’s Soul. They have some of the sweetest stories in there that will just bring you to tears. (Though most of the chicken soup books have a tendency to do that)
