  <default-description>&lt;p&gt; Natalie and Tom have been best friends forever, but Tom wants them to be much more. When Natalie's longtime boyfriend walks out on her just when she thinks he's going to propose, Tom offers her a different and wildly romantic proposition. He suggests that they spend twenty-six weekends together, indulging in twenty-six different activities from A to Z, and at the end of that time Tom's convinced they'll be madly in love. Natalie, however, is not so sure. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; As Natalie's touring the alphabet with Tom, her mother's going through her own romantic crisis&amp;#8212;while Tom's unhappily married sister-in-law, Lucy, struggles with temptation. And over the course of six amazing months, three generations of passionate dreamers are going to discover that, no matter how clever they are, love&amp;#8212;and life&amp;#8212;is never as easy as A, B, C . . . &lt;/p&gt;</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[This was really (REALLY) similar to the movie &quot;Love Actually&quot; and in this case, I liked the movie more. <br/><br/>This book is in English, but it's English English, as in 'hail to the Queen' English.

    <body><![CDATA[This falls into the definition of &quot;fun beach read.&quot; It's not the most profound thing I've ever read, but I sure enjoyed it. And I just love the whole premise of coming up with 26 different date-type activities based on the 26 letters of the alphabet. ]]></body>

I eventually brought it home with me so that I could buckle down and start reading and the book turned out to be pretty cute.

I think that the relationship between Tom and Natalie was pretty predictable, although I did like the other relationship &quot;twists&quot; t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/65249758">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I thought this book was so cute! There was one story line I didn't care for, so I mainly stayed to the one story line and more or less skipped over the other.  But it made me want to have alphabet weekend dates!! :)]]></body>
