About this deal

There is some miscommunication, or non-communication, that prevents them from being together right at the beginning, and there's a long drawn-out issue there. As expected with the genre, The Love Letter delivers more than its fair share of twists and turns, and Lucinda Riley has skilfully woven little hints and clues into the narrative along the way for the curious reader to try to piece together the puzzle themselves.

I am someone who loves most books I can get my hands on and it is VERY weird for me to ever give a book such a low rating but I found much about this book unlikable. I have only read one Katie Fforde book which I really liked and I had high hopes for this one too, unfortunatley it didn't live up to expectations.

Dadurch bekommt man kein wirkliches Bild über den Mann und sein Verhalten ist logischerweise nicht wirklich nachvollziehbar (am Schluss wird noch durch ihn seine Geschehnisse kurz aufgedeckt). This beautiful volume features love letters from a variety of people throughout history, including Heloise and Abelard, Henry VIII, Margaret of Valois, Napoleon Bonaparte, Mary Wollstonecraft, Lord Byron, Mary Shelley, John Keats, Robert Browning, and Mary, Queen of Scots. While many anthologies of love letters exist, a book reproducing actual love letters in the author's own hand has not previously been published and this book features letters from ancient Egypt to the present day. I consider myself a big fan of Lucinda Riley, I tuned to her work when I had read all of Kate Morton’s work and I was looking for a similar style author. We ask experts to recommend the five best books in their subject and explain their selection in an interview.

The hints of the personal lives of the royal family are an intimation of the privilege, but also of the restrictions these people face. Even The Rose Revived, which featured three 20-something women, she gave each of the heroines varied personalities and matched them with different types of men.With no immediate plan for future work, she ends up agreeing to organise a literary festival deep in the English countryside. Their early encounters weren’t particularly promising, more stumbling and uncertain than fuelled by overwhelming, immediate attraction, their perceptions skewed by awkward first impressions and other peoples’ opinions. But, above all, this love is born, which will always be present despite the pranks, as if love could not conquer these admitted and revealed infidelities.

The final illustration even suggests that Mouse is joining their circle, since after all, love is unlimited. Years ago, someone gave this book to me for Valentine’s Day; and I literally drowned in the pages, the naked emotion. Intimate and playful, these selected letters and diary entries allow us to hear these women's constantly changing feelings for each other in their own words. It is partly because we are young that I feel this tenderness – I love your youth – I could not bear that it should be touched even by a cold wind if I were the Lord.By nature, I’m a minimalist – and maybe don’t have the greatest attention span – so I’m in awe of short works that stand on their own.
