Traci Bennett is the BEST for this book on CD
+ The epitome of brit chik lit? + Hilarious, and quenches the romantic thirst!
I had listened to this book through the library and then borrowed it again later, but with a different reader. It was not NEARLY as entertaining by the other reader, so you ONLY want the one read by Traci Bennett!

Mars and Venus Together Forever: Relationship Skills for Lasting Love 22 reviews John Gray
Harper Paperbacks, 1996
Very insightful
+ Great Book for Bringing Back the Spark! + Secrets for Lasting Passion
In response to other reviewers, yes, this book does rely heavily on stereotypes of male and female behavior. If you find you don't fit the stereotypes (and of course not everyone does!), then you'll need to look for another book. But for many (most?) of us, the insights and advice in this book ...

A love story from all different angles and all perfectly intertwined with humor to top it all off.

Why We Love: The Nature and Chemistry of Romantic Love 34 reviews Helen Fisher
Holt Paperbacks, 2005
speculative, but a brilliant attempt.
+ Summer Reading for Scientists! + Memorable
This book suceeds on two levels. First, it is scientifically rigorous, though speculative. (those who accuse Fisher of being a popularizer obviously have never read her technical journal articles, nor other articles on this subject by researchers. She is no more speculative than they.) Second, it ...
