What is a love note? Sometimes it’s just a sweet little note that says “I love you, Sweetheart”, but it could be quite different. Linda Gilden describes lots of other ways to say “I love you” on paper and by other means. She also explores many other places to leave a love than a pillow. There are many stories in each chapter of couples who communicated a message of love in various tender and meaningful ways.
Although the author is a Christian, this is not a book about Christianity or the Christian marriage; it rather deals with a fun and practical side of marriage. There is a chapter on using Scripture in love notes, which I consider very helpful. A few verses are sprinkled through the pages, but even so, I believe any couple, Christian or not, would enjoy this book.
This is a book not to read through in one sitting, but rather to read a little, mark with a little flag, and try a suggestion before reading on. I enjoyed this book very much, and it has helped to enrich our marriage by giving both of us new ideas of expressing thoughtfulness and love. I recommend it to every couple, whether newlyweds or grandparents!
