Fikry &lt;3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685544 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 16:24:38 +0000 rachylou 1685544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Old old book: Fabulous Nobodies. About a girl who loves her frocks more than people and the dream of the Chanel suit. Lol! Fun, not uninsightful, fashion-oriented read. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685532 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 15:28:29 +0000 retailgirl 1685532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is an oldie but a goodie, "The Shell Seekers" by Rosamunde Pilcher. Set in England, def. heartwarming, long enough to keep your interest for several days. I loved it and have read it several times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685528 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 15:18:31 +0000 Peri 1685528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just finished Eligible, based on someone's recommendation from here. It is a re-telling of Pride and Prejudice, set in today's time. So funny and entertaining to read Jane Austin style language describing modern situations. It kept me interested the whole time, even though I basically knew the plot.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685496 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 13:53:59 +0000 BrieN 1685496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just read Shotgun Lovesongs and it might fit the bill for you. About long marriages and long-time friendships. Not corny </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685474 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 12:53:31 +0000 nataliejames 1685474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great suggestions....thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685471 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 12:48:24 +0000 Bonnie 1685471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just finished 1984 by George Orwell and I'm ready for a heartwarming book, too. I suggest reading a book about India that I really liked called Behind the Beautiful Forevers written by Katherine Boo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685459 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 12:24:08 +0000 Jane 1685459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've just read The Perfect Affair by Claire Dyer. A well considered and easy read, thoughtfully constructed. Claire came to the book group, and it was interesting to hear it discussed. I would add that having read the book, I think there should be a sub-title identifying that the marriages end honourably! Heartwarming, not corny!</p> <p>For a classic, Truman Capote Breakfast at Tiffany's, short, delicious and engaging. I fell in love with Holly.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/books#post-1685455 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 12:12:53 +0000 nataliejames 1685455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking for a good summer read ...heartwarming but not corny...any ideas? </p>
