    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.

  • beyond romance

    If you are looking for romantic poems gushing with longing for your beloved, then save your money: they are not in this book. If you are looking for a higher level of love, beyond the gushing, heart pounding and foolishness of adolescent hormones, then buy this book and learn about the many colors and subtle distinctions in transcendental love for G-d. The cover art is misleading; but who judges a book by its cover anyway?
