If someone asked you to capture the love of your life in six words, could you?  The smiles, the tears, the excitement, the boredom...is it even possible to capture it in a hundred words...a thousand words? Larry Smith asked famous people and everyday people to try to sum it all up in six words.  I LOVED reading their contributions.  Some were poetic (Arrived with hope, left with  heartbreak), some were funny (Will always follow you. on Twitter.), and some just said it all (In the beginning, I showered daily.).

Smith edited well, and I couldn't stop turning pages.  I tried to picture each relationship as I went along, and I quickly realized that six words are more than enough when they are the right words.  I downloaded this book in my Kindle app. and suggest you do the same.  The book takes less than thirty minutes to go through, and the ebook version is only $.99.  The paperback version is $8.60, and unless you are giving it as a gift, the ebook version is just as readable.

While it is difficult to "review" a book like this, it is very easy to recommend it.  It will touch your heart and make you smile.  What more can you ask for from six perfect words?
