What a great way to spend the day, reading stories from other women on life and experiences. Makes the world seem like a better place. If lifts your spirits and sweetens your soul and heart!!

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!

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.

Some stories are great. Some are good. Some are just okay. If you like short pieces that will take you about 5 minutes per, the Chocolate book is for you. I found a few of them a little maudlin.

This book to me can sometimes seem to be my best friend. I know it sounds weird, but when I'm really feeling down I just read a couple of these short stories and my HEART is filled with warmth. It makes you feel happy inside, knowing that miracles can come true. It makes you forget about your problems for a while, just enough to get you threw life.
