A Love Letter Life Pursue Creatively Date Intentionally Love Faithfully Jeremy Roloff Audrey Roloff 0025986353629 Books Reviews

• As a book blogger I read a lot of books. Good and sometimes bad ones! When I read the first chapters of ‘A Love Letter Life’ I immediately knew this book was not only good, but life changing. Jeremy and Audrey have a way of writing that engages and inspires there readers from the very first page. From the moment I started reading I was hooked, and didn’t want to stop reading. And I think what makes their story so good, is that it isn’t perfect. It has its flaws and therefor feels real.
  
  I’m not a religious person, but I have always felt intrigued by faith and religion. Reading this book doesn’t only make me want to work harder to have a more intentional marriage with my husband, but also makes me want to learn more about faith and religion. I feel inspired to do more with my life and work harder in my marriage.
  
  ‘A Love Letter Life’ has already changed me, and I would recommend this book to everyone out there.

• I read this book because I am fascinated by people who are different than me. From a quick look, the Roloffs could not be more different than me and my husband. Our values are at complete opposite ends of the spectrum. As someone who has what she would consider a fairly successful marriage, I was also curious to see what these two had to say about relationships.
  
  I think the core principles of this book are things that anyone could agree on, regardless of their faith and beliefs. 1) Communication is key. 2) Marriage is hard work. 3) You should get to know someone before you actually marry them. 4) Complacency is very dangerous to a marriage. Hearing their love story and the struggles they went through as a long distance couple reminded me of the first year my husband and I were together. We spent our entire first year apart with me being in NY and him being in SC. We saw each other in person every 2-3 months but most of the time was spent in totally different states. This forced us to learn how to communicate with each other right off the bat, and I think our marriage is stronger because of it.
  
  Where I think the Roloffs lose a lot of people is the constant talk of Christianity. I understand and admire that God is a big part of their life and their marriage, but I honestly believe if they toned it down just a bit that their overall message would be heard so much louder and clearer. The overall message of this book is a great one that many people could learn from, but I think the Roloffs are isolating themselves to a specific fan base by constantly talking about God. It is entirely possible to live a “love letter life” without Jesus being a part of your life. I don’t think one way is better than the other, and I don’t think the Roloffs do either honestly. They seem like good, honest, caring people. Unfortunately there are a few times the book comes off as a bit preachy.
  
  Regardless, this was an easy read with an excellent overall message. There would be less divorce in this world if people actually abided by some of these principles instead of rushing into marriage. My curiosity about how other people live their lives would probably prompt me to read another book by them as it was much better written than I anticipated. However, if you are not a religious person or if you are easily offended by people who talk about religion a lot, this is not the book for you.
• I have been happily married for nearly thirty years and still found this book incredibly insightful, with good reminders to keep the course.
• This is a beautiful and innocent story of first love. It's a picture of love, the way that God intended. I'm encouraged that there are young people who still want to get to know each other and lay a foundation of friendship before letting romance come into the picture. It's beautiful how they became friends first, then he patiently pursued her until they were both ready to be in a relationship.
• This book is such a great read. Whether you're single, dating, engaged, or married, this book is for YOU. It is so engaging! It challenged me and although I'm single, it gave me things to think about and helped me with how I view and approach my future love story. Through the beauty of writing love letters, I was encouraged to live my own love letter life. I was also reminded of the importance of finding and waiting for a spouse who loves God more than they'll ever love me. And that kind of love is worth waiting for and pursuing with purpose. I was greatly encouraged and I know you will be too! Such a wonderfully written love story that encourages others in every season of life. It's a great read for both men and women alike.

• I can not recommend this book enough! I was initially hesitant on ordering it but I am so glad I did. It is proof that true love stories still exist and its message needs to spread. Love is not a fleeting feeling but instead a daily choice to selflessly pursue someone. I also love their emphasis the importance of founding relationships on friendship first!
