Read it a second time in a month. Still can't put it into words, other than ... whatever didn't work out was never supposed to. The book puts all of your what ifs to rest. If you've read it, tell me how you processed it. I'd say this is definitely a must read. 🎁💝

I consciously avoided finishing this book for a month because I didn't want it to end, and I wasn't emotionally prepared for how it might end 😂

How we make so many plans for our life, then life surprises us 🎁 How things change, how we change.

Great intellectual, witty banter. It might seem predictable at first, but it takes a steep drop, then twists and turns 😳

A favorite conspiracy, second to the JFK Assassination, is the sinking of the Titanic. If you know good resources for either one, please share 🤓

Unfortunately, this book is neither here nor there, haha just a good play by play of events before it sank. (No fiction like the movie.)

It is a quick read - 150 pages or so.

I don't remember how I acquired this book (if you gave it to me, please tell me!) It had me in tears. Over 100 real love letters from history. I like it because the book isn't all butterflies and romance - it contains different types of love letters, even heartbreak and letters between divorced people. 📚
