Customer Reviews

I love this book

Each story has its own heart warming experience that are really wonderful. This book shows that you could get something that you dream off at the least expeted place and that what's make life is so great:)

An excellent book

These books are great, they helped me boost my self confidence and awareness for my health. I am 14 years of age and I weigh about 80 kilo's so I am rather large but reading these stories I realise that if I try to lose a lot of weight I'll most probably end up with anorexia or bulemia or something like that. These stories have made me feel more comfortable with my weight.

remembering

Love this book. In my mind I know that love is the most powerful force. In the course of daily living, I do not always remember what I know. The stories in Chocolate for a Lover's Heart help me remember what is most important in life.

A VERY GOOD BOOK

This was a good book and I enjoyed reading it! If you want to read a book that goes straight to your heart, read Stolen Moments by Barbara Jeanne Fisher. . .It is a beautiful story of unrequited love. . .for certain the love story of the nineties. I intended to give the book a quick read, but I got so caught up in the story that I couldn't put the book down. From the very beginning, I was fully caught up in the heart-wrenching account of Julie Hunter's battle with lupus and her growing love for Don Lipton. This love, in the face of Julie's impending death, makes for a story that covers the range of human emotions. The touches of humor are great, too, they add some nice contrast and lighten things a bit when emotions are running high. I've never read a book more deserving of being published. It has rare depth. Julie's story will remind your readers that life and love are precious and not to be taken for granted. It has had an impact on me, and for that I'm grateful. Stolen Moments is written with so much sensitivity that it made me want to cry. It is a spellbinder. What terrific writing. Barbara does have an exceptional gift! This book was edited by Lupus specialist Dr. Matt Morrow too, and has the latest information on that disease. ..A perfect gift for someone who started college late in life, fell in love too late in life, is living with any illness, or trying to understand a loved one who is. . .A gift to be cherished forever.
