The Lover's Dictionary

3/5 stars

This book was definitely not for me, I guess. I would say that you have to be in a very specific mood in order to read this book. I saw other reviews mention that you would have to be a “bit more idealistic and optimistic about romantic outcomes”. I think this is very true because the person who recommended this book is very idealistic when it comes to romance.

Overall, it was not a bad book. It was in a very different format than what I would typically read. Some sections were more like vignettes, while others read like poetry. I still felt like at times it did get grating, especially since a lot of sections seem to be the same story just with a different flair to it.
