29 - a book with "love" in the title

[Linda]

Jess wrote: "I am thinking about reading Love Walked In by Maria de los Santos"

Loved it!

[Alison]

I have a few options for this
The Unpredictable Consequences of Love
Out of Love
The Improbability of Love
I Believe in a Thing Called Love

I'd also recommend the following
Big Sexy Love - one of my faves and not what the title suggests. Really sweet and a little bit sad
Love You To Death - one for those who like a murder mystery/thriller
My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories - a bit of a mixed bag of YA stories but some of them are brilliant (Rainbow Rowell, Stephanie Perkins)

[Ian]

Redefining Realness: My Path to Womanhood, Identity, Love & So Much More comes highly recommended to me, and I'll take a reason to use as many LGBT+ books as possible.

[Trina]

Can highly recommend Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren! I adored it. What's better than romance and one which is based on a mutual love of books and reading??

I'm going to go with One True Loves by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I've heard so many wonderful things about this author, yet I still haven't read anything by her.

[amax]

For those of us who aren't crazy about romance novels, there's always this classic play instead: Love's Labour's Lost by William Shakespeare

[SadieReadsAgain]

A nice easy pick for me - the only book on my tbr with the word "love" in the title is I Loved You All

[StefanieFrei]

hm - I do not really read love stories a lot, but it only says "love" on the title - so something like "cLOVEr" or similar would count to, right? Not that this really helps me now...

In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin

Ooh. I forgot about [book:Dear Fahrenheit 451: Love and Heartbreak in the Stacks I think this will do for me!

[Sarah]

Love, Hate & Other Filters This has been on my to read for such a while!

[Oh My Bookness!]

I can't believe everyone ha missed To Sir, With Love!

[Yuval]

A few more options:
Love, Rosie
Eat, Pray, Love
Love & Misadventure
Popcorn Love
About Love and Other Stories
P.S. I Love You
How to Fall in Love
My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories

[Julie]

I’m planning to read Everybody Always : Becoming Love in a World Full of Setbacks and Difficult People by Bob Goff. His first book, Love Does, would also work.

[Shelley]

Tales of Burning Love

[Christina]

I think I'll use the upcoming My Lovely Wife, which is scheduled for release on 03/26/19, so it could also work for the book published in 2019.

[Adrienne P]

I'm going with Grim Lovelies or To All the Boys I've Loved Before

[Erin]

Cards of Love: Seven of Swords by JJ Knight

[KF-in-Georgia]

I thought this prompt would be easier, but I don't have a lot of books with "love" in the title. But I've got:

Zuleika Dobson; Or, an Oxford Love Story by Max Beerbohm
and
Love and Friendship by Jane Austen

It probably says too much about my love life that both my "love" books are satires.

[Sarah]

I'm struggling with this one as what I'm finding seem to be nice, lovey "chic lit" romance stuff which I'm really not into.

Would love some suggestions for something a bit deeper or darker etc if anyone can help.

However one book which I can't recommend highly enough that I just finished is The Book of Love. A stunning read of the not so easy time over a couple's marriage.

I'm right there with you on not being into a lot of the lovey happily-ever-after chic lit, so for this prompt I think I'll be using the upcoming My Lovely Wife, which is due out the end of March.

[Tytti]

Love by Toni Morrison doesn't sound very romantic.

Feel ya. Hate that sort of thing. I can recommend The History of Love though.

[Suzann]

I'm reading They All Love Jack - a look at the fascination with Jack the Ripper and providing a reinterpretation of who/what people think he was.

[Sarah]

Ooooh thank you so much for all those, none of those seem overly lovey dovey :)

[Hannah]

If you're looking for humor, Bloodsucking Fiends: a Love Story, is fantastic!

[Jen]

OK so this was one of my dreaded prompts but To All The Boys I've Loved Before was on special in Big W so I decided to just get it done. Those of you who said this book was worth the read I'm sorry I didn't listen sooner, it was hilarious. I've now got the next 2 so hope they are as funny, who can't use a good laugh. (I may just have a warped sense of humour though....)

[Jaime]

Love Walked in - an amazing book - I loved it so much - have read it probably 10 times. It's the first in a fabulous series as well!

[Christina]

The Mastery of Love

[Allison]

This is another option for The Lovely Bones...for a darker option.

[Darci]

I don't really read romance, so I thought my options would be pretty limited, but a quick search of my TBR brought a bunch of non-fiction books that happened to have love in the title. I'll probably go with The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements

Other ideas that popped up:
The Prodigal Tongue: The Love-Hate Relationship Between American and British English
Mary's Monster: Love, Madness, and How Mary Shelley Created Frankenstein
Believe Me: A Memoir of Love, Death, and Jazz Chickens
The Rainbow Comes and Goes: A Mother and Son On Life, Love, and Loss
Galileo's Daughter: A Historical Memoir of Science, Faith and Love

[Rachel]

How about Love Letters to the Dead

[Mikaela]

I just finished Love and Ruin today (I read the first 80 pages yesterday and the day before...and then finished the rest in one sitting today!) and I really enjoyed it! I'd already read The Paris Wife a couple years ago, and I enjoyed it so much I made sure to purchase Love & Ruin when it came out. Paula McLain did it again with a wonderful novel about Martha Gellhorn - Ernest Hemingway's fiercely independent third wife. I definitely recommend it!

[Melanie]

I read “Love and other consolation Prizes” last year and really enjoyed it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a book for this prompt

[Umairah (Sereadipity)]

I've chosen 'Love, hate & other filters'

[Liz]

For true crime aficionados, BTK's daughter has a book coming out in a few weeks:

A Serial Killer's Daughter: My Story of Faith, Love, and Overcoming

[Gregory]

Beer Is Proof God Loves Us: The Craft, Culture, and Ethos of Brewing

[Shelley]

I've had If I Am Missing or Dead: A Sister's Story of Love, Murder, and Liberation on my TBR list for awhile, so hopefully I'll be able to find it. It's about a domestic abuse murder. Kinda the absolute opposite of a romance but still fascinating.

[El]

Love and Longing in Bombay by Vikram Chandra

[Kelli]

I plan to read Love and Ruin by Paula McLain for this prompt. It has been on my TBR list for a while.

[Heather L]

For those who prefer a classical take on the prompt: Sons and Lovers by D.H. Lawrence.

[Kayla]

this one looks good for people not into chic lit:
The Man Who Loved Books Too Much: The True Story of a Thief, a Detective, and a World of Literary Obsession http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62...

[Emily]

I will be reading Love, Rosie and The Greatest Love Story Ever Told

[Tamar]

I've just read Love's Executioner and Other Tales of Psychotherapy by Irvin Yalom. It could a good option for people who don't fancy romance.

[Courtney]

I will be reading To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han.

[Tiffany]

One of my favorite books EVER!

I will be very curious whether you find it as hilarious as I did. Not sure if it is meant to be or I am just odd.

[Nicki]

I'm currently reading Geek Love

[Jess]

Yay! I got Love in the Time of Cholera as a freebie in the Audible sale!

[Jonathan]

Is "loving" ok? Because I highly recommend Loving Day by Mat Johnson.

[Karen]

I'm currently reading Dreaming the Beatles: The Love Story of One Band and the Whole World by Rob Sheffield.

[jeannette ⋆ ੈ✩‧₊˚]

I'll be reading From Twinkle, with Love for this prompt :)
