4.0

This book is a beautiful collection of declarations of love from some of the greatest works of fiction. It is an ideal book for literature lovers who can't get enough of beautiful romantic prose. In this book I found many of my favorite scenes, all in one place. It's the perfect book to read before bed; indulge in your favorite romantic passages before dreaming of your own Mr Darcy.
The only reason I'm subtracting a star is because it would be nice to have the full bibliographic reference, preferably at the beginning of the excerpt, especially for the stories I didn't know.
You may argue that you already own your favorite books, why would you need this collection? Well, besides the straightforward simplicity of having all these couples at your finger tips, it is also an absolutely stunning book. The cover (like all M.C. Frank covers) is gorgeous, and is begging to brighten up your bookshelf! I feel no shame in admitting that I do judge books by their covers, and this book is love at first sight!
