As a somewhat repressed male, not entirely in touch with my romantic self, I sure learned a lot. Great as a reference book, as well as a good read.

This book is wonderful! It feels beautiful in your hands and the content is laid out very cleverly. This makes it an easy, entertaining read. The author has done her homework; whether you want to know about "Best Movie Kisses" or the "History of Kissing", there are even results from her survey to tell you WHERE to kiss your loved one. Very cool!

This book has little or nothing to do with the promises indicated by its title. Its author does not reach a male reader. Maybe this book was aimed toward 10 year old girls who want to imagine kissing in perfect-romance someday.

This book is a pure delight. I couldn't put it down. Well written and witty, it brings back memories of favorite kisses and inspires some new approaches to kissing as well.

A great gift - for yourself or someone special!

what a sexy little book!
indulge yourself in a little romantic reading and you might even learn a thing or two. i loved it.

I was given this book as a present and thought it was wonderful! It will definately put a smile on your face if not make you laugh out loud! What a wonderful gift to give to friends for a holiday like Valentine's Day!

I picked it up as a romantic gift for my husband. I couldn't put it down. It's charming and witty and I enjoyed every minute of it.
I keep it in my bathroom to entertain guests.

I gave this book as a gift to a friend in New York City who just became engaged and it was perfect. It's sophisticated, well-written and fun. I took a few minutes to read thru it and it has some fun facts. The colors, design and layout are very pleasing to the eye which I liked much better than any of the other "kissing" books.

Not being an overly sensitive and emotional person, I did find the author's romantic flair to the art of kissing rather sweet. If you are expecting the nitty-gritty-bare-all examples, this is not the book for you.

I heard an interview with the author on NPR and so became interested in this book. I thought it was going to give a scientific explanation of how the kiss developed and an anthropological history of what is truly a pleasureable but unusual behavior. When I finally purchased it and started to read it, I found it silly and lacking any real information.
