[Samantha Zawacki · Rating 3 out of 5]

There were some good poems in here for sure. But for a book called “ Love poem collection: the greatest love poems and love quotes of all time” I expected all time to exceed past 1913.

[Aaron Jinks · Rating 5 out of 5]

I don't read a lot of classic poetry, but this makes me wish I would've read it earlier. This is radical.

[Sean Archer · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very exciting book of traditional love poems and prose.

[Heather · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book was not well edited.

[Katie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Come live with me and be my love, And we will all the pleasures prove
-Christopher Marlowe

Interesting collection. Some good, some obscenely obscure. I'm wondering why some were not included...it seems this collection is based on having the word "love" in the poem rather than the theme of love

[Layla · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is an ok collection of love poems. There are several which are repeated (I think I saw one poem repeated three times throughout the book.)

Nevertheless, it's a good source for classic love poems.

[Catherine Bishop · Rating 3 out of 5]

- Good collection, lots of classics and some that I haven't heard of before!
- However, quite a lot of repeats on the ebook, got annoying after a while.
