This review is from: Chocolate For A Womans Heart: 77 Stories Of Love, Kindness & Compassion to Nourish Your Soul & Sweeten Your Dreams (Paperback)
Ah-hem, despite the title I, a manly-man, thougth it a great read too.
I cam across this book in my store and was going to list it on Amazon. Then I noticed that it had five stars. OK, that got me curious. Started to read it and loved each story (each story is only about 3 pages). Must be my touchy-feely side. So now I'm bringing it home to my better half along with a Symphony bar. Not a bad idea if I say so myself!

This review is from: Chocolate For A Womans Heart: 77 Stories Of Love, Kindness & Compassion to Nourish Your Soul & Sweeten Your Dreams (Paperback)
I am a fan of Chicken Soup type books, so I figured that this book would be along those lines and not disappoint. I was not wrong, and was delighted to find that I, a single woman never married, was actually inspired to consider looking for love again. The stories are honest and down to earth, and I like how the women are profiled along with information for contacting them at the end of the book. Potential readers should know that many of the writers appeared to have a new age bent in their beliefs, that didn't put me off necessarily, but might bother those with a more traditional way of thinking. I was able to take like I liked along those lines, and leave the rest, focusing instead, on the hopefulness of this book. I will say, that having read this, I want to read all the books in this series, so this was a good book to start with.
