Love wounds the heart and soul . . .

From the editors of the New York Times bestseller Not Quite What I Was Planning comes another collection of terse true tales—this time simple sagas exploring the complexities of the human heart. Six-Word Memoirs on Love & Heartbreak contains hundreds of personal stories about the pinnacles and pitfalls of romance. Brilliant in their brevity, these insightful slivers of passion, pain, and connection capture every shade of love and loss—six words at a time.

This review is from: Six-Word Memoirs On Love And Heartbreak: by Writers Famous and Obscure (Paperback)
This is a very entertaining and thought provoking book. Perfect for when you do not have alot of time to devote to reading, but still want to read something stimulating. I read it while recuperating. It was great because I did not have the energy to concentrate for long periods.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great additions to original collection, Jan 26 2009
By Obscure Six Word Author - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Six-Word Memoirs On Love And Heartbreak: by Writers Famous and Obscure (Paperback)
The new memoirs in the Love and Heartbreak edition are very entertaining. For the most part they are witty or emotional, but not super cheesy, as you might expect from a love-themed book.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of these, is "My Six Word Memoirs on Love & Heartbreak, Feb 9 2009
By Winnie Shrader - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Six-Word Memoirs On Love And Heartbreak: by Writers Famous and Obscure (Paperback)
I'm not famous and I'm obscure. However, I am a proud contributor to this wonderful, little, book. It's filled with, serious, funny, sad, frustrating, and clever, "Six Word Memoirs on Love & Heartbreak." It's a great book, and definitely a conversation starter. You can enjoy it yourself, or read it out loud. Pretty soon you'll be thinking of your own tales of love.
