By A Customer

This book begins with the author's view of how a love letter should be written. The author draws on historical letters, sayings, and techniques to show the reader what has been succesful in the past. She also includes ideas on how to deliver, send, and even what pen to use when you are writing your letter. This how to introduction is followed by a compilation of famous love letters from history. The letters are divided up into sections that start with letters that are trying to woo someone, letters that are written during the excitng early stages of a relationship, and even letters that are written after a long relationship has been established. This book is for the hopeless romantic in us all. It is especially great for guys who are hopless romantics. This book is the kind of book that you can read here and there in. You can read whatever letters you want in no particular order and just enjoy the feeling you get from reading letters that come from the heart.

Lorie "Lorie" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Write Love Letters (Hardcover)

This is a great book that was so interesting I couldn't put it down. There are so many things to think about when writing a love letter. She really puts it out there, I'm glad I got this book and just love it. After reading some other reviews, I got a copy of "Romeo's Playbook" and would also suggest it. My husband loves it and now he is my Romeo. He understands me now and our love life has exploded with excitement!

5.0 out of 5 stars Keep It Simple, March 30, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Write Love Letters (Hardcover)

Lovric does a magnificent job helping the inspired put life's most difficult emotions to paper coherently. The luxuriously decadent presentation of examples written by ordinary people provide a starting point for a variety of circumstances, sure to help any lovesick would-be Cyrano. Too bad it's out of print, but grab one if you can.
