Hey Everyone. I'm new to this Forum. Actually, I LOVE reading books. It's been one of my hobbies.

So Like recently, I caught up with Love Story By Erich Segal.

That book was wonderful. I loved how he managed to describe everything so perfectly. Right from Olliver's imperfections, to Jennifer, her perfections & imperfections, and their not-so-perfect Love Story, everything was described very beautifully. I loved the way he managed to portray all the different emotions in such a subtle manner. And I've become an absolute fan of Olliver-Jenny.

The ending had me in tears. When Olliver breaks down in his father's arms, the one man he detested from the core of his heart. It was a very touching book indeed.

How many of you guys have read it? I would love to know your views on it as well :)

Love
Rachna

@Ananya- Tell me about it! I started reading it 4 times, but never completed it! But one fine day, when I got so bored, I decided I'll read it, and I actually finished reading it in like 2 hours straight!

OMG, it has a sequel?? thanks for letting me know! Let me see if I can get my hands on its sequel!

Hey Rach!

I have not read the book because I rarely ever read love stories.... one of the genres I don't quite like.

But it seems like an interesting book... who knows one of these days I'll be so bored that I'll read it too?!

@MAhi- You should. It's an absolutely amazing book. I never really liked Love Stories either, but this book changed my mind :)

Absolutely awesome book! Has enough of everything ;Love,hatred,sadness & humour.. & I adore both Oliver & Jenny..especially Jenny! She was wonderful! & ofcourse ..my favorite line from the book "Love means not ever having to say you are Sorry"  If I could, this is one book I'd gift to a friend who's going to get married or give as a gift on a wedding Anniversary😛
