In Love, Love, Love, you get 2 books for the price of 1. Deborah Reber’s, Language of Love, is book 1. Caroline Goode’s, Cupidity, is book 2.
Language of Love: I gave it 3 stars.
It’s Deborah’s first debut novel and I really liked it. It was nice, cute and fun read for sure. This book has good lesson in it for teens about self discovery and influence by those who are around you.
Cupidity: I gave it 2 stars.

Well this is just a quick note about the cover. While it is cute enough (although has nothing to do with the story) i hate the fact that Simon pulse gave up the cute cartoon style covers and started grouping books. Which half the time have nothing in common. Especially when I look at the gorgeous cover we could of had.
Not to mention the title of love, love, love is so generalised that it took me months before I actually picked it up at the library and only brought it home when I realised that...more

This 452-page tome include two stories from Simon Pulse, Simon & Shuster's divison for contemporary teen fiction. The first story, Language of Love, finds Janna in a bind after she puts on a foreign accent to impress a boy, then finds that she must keep up the accent and supposed lifestyle of a foreign exchange students if she is to keep the interest of that boy. Or does she? Janna has been somewhat of a shy wallflower so having a boy want to be with her is thrilling. Her confidence soars an...more
So far I have only read Language of Love, so that is what I am reviewing.
Janna is a shy and outgoing person until she starts pretending to be an exchange student from Hungary. It is a twisting journey to see how she got herself into it, and learned a lot about herself in the process. I can see how the lie could continue and sympathize with her since I have often wished for a chance for a fresh start, to be someone else.
Her best friends Molly and Emm are well written and play great supporting...more

Language of Love - 3.5 stars
Predictable and fun, Language of Love is an adorable read that will be sure to entice readers. The plot was a bit elementary, as any girl should realize pretending to be someone you are not never ends up well. The plot was quite predictable, but that's part of the charm of the romantic story.
The plot was very cute, despite the initial drawbacks I had. The story was very easy to get caught up in, and it was a lot of fun. Deborah Reber does a really great job transport...more

I liked both books, though Cupidity took a while for me to get into. I love the Greek mythology part of it - so unique! Cupid becoming Cupidity was a little weird and unrealistic, especially the name and her/his behavior. Like, Cupid's a guy - shouldn't he be at least a little uncomfortable acting like a girl?
It's interesting to read that most reviewers preferred the first story, Language of Love, over the second, Cupidity.
I didn't care for the first story at all. Whether because it was trite, stereotypical teenage angst or because I get too much of that teenage angst on a regular basis, I can't say. But I do know that the characters were annoying and the storyline completely predictable.
The second story was more interesting because of the modernization of the mythological figures. Despite being be...more

I only read Language of Love so far and it was great. Janna pretends to be someone she isn't . 5 stars.
Cupidity is about Laura wanting a boyfriend. So Cupid pretends to be a girl, to help Laura. 4 stars...

The second story appealed to me a lot more than the first. I enjoyed both and they were a quick and easy read. I was glad that the second story had some fantasy in it!
Cupidity had some not-so-solid points. They both did, actually, but I liked Language Of Love better.
LANGUAGE OF LOVE - 5 stars!!!!
Cupidity - 1 star
Whole book - 3 stars
I only read "language of love" for this review. I loved language of love. But cupidity didnt interest me. So I had to give this book only 3 stars. If I could review the stories separately is give language of love 5 stars.

i cant wait to read this book :)
Two cute easy reads
chick lit,
It took me forever to get through this. I couldn't get into the plot and I hated the characters I just-ugh. I skipped words and then sentences and then whole paragraphs just to get to the end. I rarely ever stop reading a book but I came close for this one.
I only read the first part, "Language of Love", but all I can say about that book was that it was fantastic! The author's way of words made me want to get in there and help Janna with all of her problems (:
This rating is for Language of Love only.
The first book was slightly better... the second seemed a little different- it was sort of all over the place
I loved the first story: Language of Love. It was a cute short story that you can relate to. Cupidity was okay-ish but I didn't find it as interesting as Language of Love.
3.5
Gave the book 3 stars because of the first story. The second story was weird what with all the mythology references and cupidity was a bit twisted as well.
Not the best, best stories but still likeable. A good read if you are bored.
It was ok...
