Book Review: Other People's Love Letters

Emotional voyeurism at its best. Other People’s Love Letters is a compilation of love letters that were written for and by people that you will likely never meet. Editor Bill Shapiro took the time to gather this collection of hysterical, tear jerking, heart wrenching and at times disturbing batch of love letters.

There are letters from men, women, those who have just started dating, have been married for years and those who have lost love. The collection includes a letter from a man serving in Vietnam in 1969 to the love he has left behind, and a few from those who are just looking for a roll in the hay. Needless to say, it is a captivating emotional roller coaster – both sweet & scandalous. As one reader noted, “it’s a great way to remember how good love feels in the beginning and how sweet it can be after many years.”
