Best Romance Book I've Ever Read

When a good friend of mine told me she had read Ready For Romance and was all but floored by the book's humor, originality and effectiveness, I said, "Please! Not another romance book!" But, after checking the book out for myself, I was very pleasantly surprised to discover that I enjoyed the book even more than she.Perhaps the first thing that struck me about Ready for Romance is that it is highly entertaining: Rather than merely offering romantic advice, the book offers tried and true "recipes" that the authors and their close friends and associates over the years have used to cook up some pretty steamy love. In other words, we'er not talking theory here, we're talking experience.Second, in a word, the Caplans are very funny. I'm not certain whether it's Jimmy's long background as a stand-up comedian, or Leslie's influence as a well-travelled mother of four, but the combination of the two makes for some very entertaining, yet warm humor which carried me happily through the read.Third, the structure of the book is enticingly original: By separating the recipes into several very different chapters (my favorite was "Zensational"), the reader can easily choose the type of romantic ideas that are right for him or her. After all, there's no sense in taking a hot air balloon ride with your amour when the two of you would actually be far more comfortable gazing into each other's eyes in a small, intimate lunch spot.But best of all, Ready For Romance has a certain generosity, an optimism, that I found almost intoxicating. It's so darn positive, you feel as if the outside world and its complications are no more difficult to deal with than a barking dog down the street. Somehow, the Caplans convince you that romantic bliss is not only possible, but it's inevitable if you only get in contact with the playful part of you that you've probably been supressing for a heck of a long time. In my case, that suppresion was a pretty well-oiled mechanism, but after reading Ready For Romance, I have to admit -- I feel considerably more relaxed, positive -- and romantic -- than I have in quite some time.A great read!

How a Martian discovered Romance

Ok, I;m from Mars, I admit it. I thought the suggestions in this book were just corny when I first got it and scanned it.Then, I started to get the idea that there was a woman's AND a man's point of view in here , like therapy from a couple for a couple, but much cheaper than $ 100 bucks and hour. Even better, these ideas work! I learned that my wife doesn't really like gifts like a new vacuum - but LOVES it if I volunteer to do the vacuuming even once. I learned that to show APPRECIATION in little ways, even to just say " I appreciate that in you" changes the attitude of the room. After 20 years of marraige, when simple politeness is a stretch and romance seems pretty impossible , this stuff makes even ME appealing! Look, she's smiling at me!But, guys, be careful, don't try too many of these too soon, or she'll think that you're having an affair. You're just being nice to hide something! Or, "hey, what the heck has come over you?" Or, " who have you been talking to? that drunken pal of yours, Fred, doesn't send flowers to HIS wife where she works , does he?" yeah, well, he does now! and it works for him, too.Never underestimate flowers at the door or a card when there's no occasion.See ? I'm becoming a romantic. And , the BIG Surprise is, it's fun! Get the book; thank me later.
