The History of Love





I just finished "The History of Love" for the second time and it was equally as amazing as the first. When I started it yesterday I had plans to pace myself and make it last but ended up reading the first half in one day. Earlier this evening, while sitting in Cafe Comercial, I opened up to page 153 I had intended to just read a chapter or two as a small study break and ended up finishing the last hundred or so pages. As I finished I realized that my right leg had been shaking and I was smiling...slightly awkward, but totally out of my control: the book is just that good. The following are some of my favorite passages. Go buy the book.
