I've always liked 'Chicken Soup' books, and this one is one of my favorites. There are many stories in the book, each written by a different author sharing his or her own inspirational experience. Because each story is written by a different author, they each have their own distinct characteristics. I really enjoyed the story about an elderly lady who lost her husband and received long-stemmed roses from him for Valentine's Day after his passing. That story, along with many others in this collection, will help to ease any doubt for those who may believe true love is out of reach. I also highly recommend 'Open Your Mind, Open Your Life: A Little Book of Wisdom' by Taro Gold.

I've always been in love with the Chicken Soup books, and Chicken Soup for the Couple's Soul is my absolute favorite. Each story in the book is written by a different author, each sharing his or her own unique inspirational experience. And because each story is written by a different author, they each have their own distinct characteristics.
The stories are separated into several categories, just like in the previous Chicken Soup books. Each section offers many stories, and each story is inspiring. In particular, I really enjoyed the story written about the elderly lady who lost her husband and received yellow, long-stemmed roses from him for Valentine's Day after his death. This story, along with the many others in this collection, will surely erase any doubt in those whose belief in true love has weakened. It is not just the content of this book that will keep readers from putting this book down, it is the feeling that one will attain from the stories. It's not all about love and romance, and that is why this book is also well-rounded (although the stories are limited to relationship-related issues). I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I recommend that everyone gives it a try.

I have 7 Chicken Soup for the Soul books and love them all. This has to be my favorite though, because my fiance and I read it together. It was a wonderful experience to read each story and think about how it relates to our relationship. We were inspired by the stories of the elderly couples who are still in love. We are 20 and have a very strong bond, but these stories give us hope and reassurance that these kind of loving relationships still exist. I recommend this book to every couple.

Anyone who has a romantic bone in their body will find this book entertaining and sentimental. Allow me to illustrate: my macho, grunting, military boyfriend begrudgingly borrowed my dog-eared copy to read on a cozy afternoon at my house. After approximately ten minutes, he is all teary-eyed and encases me in a huge bear-hug. He has romantic tendencies, but it takes an act of God (or Chicken Soup, apparently) to inspire actions such as this on his part. I find the book interesting, eloquent at times, and generally worthy of a warm, fuzzy glow. It is easy to steal a glance at one or two stories during a few minutes of spare time, and equally easy to read the entire book in one sitting on a rainy afternoon. That is, if you can pry it away from your significant other's grasp. I recommend getting two copies to alleviate this problem. |

I read this book when I became engaged. It totally gave me inspiration and ideas for my relationship. This book was so uplifting and it always made me smile. All the stories are beautiful. I recommend this book to anyone who has been in love, who is in love or even looking for love.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It really helped me see my relationship in a different light. It also helped my significant other as well. As for the person who commented on there being too many stories about death, well, unfortunately in today's society it takes something like a loss for us to realize what we love and have. Most people today are too BUSY to even appreciate what they have in their life so I don't think it was a bad thing to have these kinds of stories. It definately opened my eyes to reality.

We received this as a Wedding gift. I truly loved every story and couldn't put it down or wait to pick it up again. It really touches your heart and makes you thankful for what you have in life. I am blessed and look forward to a wonderful and long life with my awesome husband. Who knows... I may have a story to contribute in 40 years.

I just loved the positive, uplifting stories about relationships. You read about too many failed, destructive and disfunctional relationships elsewhere you begin to wonder if happy, loving marriages really do exist. Another book along this vein (and even better, I think) is The RoMANtic's Guide. It has hundreds of personal accounts of couples who are madly in love and what they do to express it. If you liked SHMILY, you'll love this book.

My husband and I received this book as a wedding gift. I read it on the plane to our honeymoon destination. I shared some of the stories with my husband and we both agreed that it added a very special touch to our whole wedding experience. I felt inspired by the stories and moved to tears over a few. I recommend this book as a gift to all newly married couples.

This book was absolutely wonderful. Me and my boyfriend took time out of each day to read some of it together. We enjoyed all of the heart-warming stories and they really brought us closer together. It made us realize that we're not the only couple with problems and that we can work them out. We look forward to reading more of the Chicken Soup collection. This book touched our hearts in a way we'll never forget.
