Let's Fall in Love

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.

An Escape to Happy Stories, Keeping Your Dreams Alive

This book is full of wonderful short stories that give you that "warm fuzzy feeling." You will have lots of smiles, some tears, & remember that there is indeed good in this world. Read the whole book through & enjoy every minute of it. Then keep it around for the occassional needed "pick me up!" A beautiful book for keeping our hopes & dreams alive.

A book to curl up to and indulge in!

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.
