Not a fan of books based on diaries or personal letters,but review seems interesting.And a book getting 4 stars is worth reading.

I have the same sentiments about writing style, and I'm glad that you painted this author's writing style in the most amazing way. Art within art. That's something I don't wanna pass up. Thanks for this wonderful review!

This sounds like a complicated emotional tale. I am not sure it is my style, but it sounds lovely anyway. Thank you for the review!

The emotional dilemma faced by these two characters and the inherent difficulty in their union seem to be the central theme here. I like that the author is successful in writing about complicated life choices from a philosophical point of view. You have done a marvelous job at the review. Thanks for reviewing the book.

I think that this is a very tricky concept to pull for the author. But if you say that it was done well, I believe you. I hope that I will enjoy it as you did.

I think that I will give the book a chance and see if it is as good as the review made it seem. I like to read the romance genre. I also like that there is poetry and philosophy within the story. I can't wait to read this book.

This book sounds like a delicious read. It's always great to discover someone who gets you in and out. I'm also intrigued because of the epistolary nature of the book. Reads like this that border on finding a more "suitable" partner outside one's marriage mate personally stresses the point of choosing a life partner wisely, with eyes wide open, such that one would be so sure that no other person can fit that role even after marriage. Sometimes these marital issues stem from the wrong choice of a marriage mate. Thanks for the awesome review.

I am impressed the writing style is poetic, with exchanges of Neil and Ellie’s letters. The element of philosophy and romance is also something to look forward to reading on as well. Nice review.

"Looking Glass Friends" is a romantic book by E.L. Neve about Neil and Ellie. Neil is married to Fay and is unhappy with his life and Ellie is married to Jake and is the mother to a five-year-old. Their emotional dilemma forms a very interesting story. Congratulations on BOTD!!
