Helen Fielding

Penguin (Non-Classics), 1999

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 Love22 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 ...

One Of My Top 10 Greatest Movies Of All Time

+ Cheesy, but not too cheesy
+ It's all about love

A love story from all different angles and all perfectly intertwined with humor to top it all off. A stacked cast full of great British actors, Love Actually is a real life (and rather adult, I don't think you would want your children watching this), creatively written Christmas movie. They cover ...
  
  











  



  
Why We Love: The Nature and Chemistry of Romantic Love34 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 ...
