Sara A quick search for the word "love" gave me a pretty good list to start from:

I plan to read P.S. I Still Love You since I read the first book in that series (and watched the adorable movie) this year.

Brittany Morrison | 145 comments I don't usually do romance books but I ended up reading The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapatathis year because I was looking for something by an author who's name started with a Z and I really enjoyed it. Since enjoyed it so much I'm probably going to read From Lukov with Love

Stina (stinalyn) | 464 comments I guess it's Death of an Orchid Lover for me. I think that may be the only book I own that fits this prompt.

Food: A Love Story is by stand-up comic Jim Gaffigan and also looks good.

Tracy (tracyisreading) | 608 comments I found The Hypnotist's Love Story on my kindle, but then I remembered Im going to be reading To All the Boys Ive Loved Before ( possibly tonight) and maybe I will change it to P.S. I Still Love You.....

Me too! I am not a romance novel person, so I was happy to find this title already in my "Want to Read" list here on Goodreads.

Rachelnyc | 186 comments I was worried when I saw this category but then I remembered Love and Ruin is on my TBR. I'll probably use some of the non-romance books mentioned in this thread as back-up in case I decide to use that for another prompt.

Serendipity | 146 comments I'm probably going with Ali and Nino: A Love Story. As a bonus (for me - I'm aiming to read more widely geographically) it is set in Azerbaijan.

Rachel Heaney | 210 comments On my TBR:
The Atomic Weight of Love by Elizabeth J. Church
The History of Love by Nicole Krauss

Have read before and can recommend:
LoveMurder by Saul Black
Whatever You Love by Louise Doughty
The Love of My Life by Louise Douglas
Because She Loves Me by Mark Edwards
Love Anthony by Lisa Genova
Enduring Love by Ian McEwan
The Last Letter from Your Lover by Jojo Moyes

Johanne *the biblionaut* | 1301 comments Two non-romance titles:
The History of Love by Nicole Krauss
Horrific Sufferings of the Mind-Reading Monster Hercules Barefoot: His Wonderful Love and His Terrible Hatred by Carl-Johan Vallgren. I don´t know why this title got so long - in Swedish it is simply called "The wonderful history of love"

Johanne *the biblionaut* | 1301 comments For anyone looking for good YA:
Love Letters to the Dead.

And I remembered a book I really want to read, sadly not translated: Når man forveksler kærlighed med en saks "When you confuse love for scissors".

Wow, thank you for this recommendation. I started recently to try and 'read around the world' and Azerbaijan is not an easy one :)
I will definetely check this out!

My colleague is a very choosy reader, and he highly recommends it.

Jess Penhallow | 427 comments I didn't actually have as many as I thought I might have on my huge TBR. My options are:

Love in the Time of Global Warming
The Tsar of Love and Techno
Songs of Love and War
The Food of Love
Love and Other Wounds: Stories
Love, Hate & Other Filters

I think I'm leaning towards Songs of Love and War as it's been on my TBR for awhile

My book club read "One True Loves" together and it was well-received. It garnered lots of discussion too!

Fabulous read especially if you're into music as much as reading. Rob's other books are also a joy. (Pretty quick reads, as well.)
