I am painfully aware of the upcoming holiday. The one where half of the population spends the day with the loves of their lives, and the other half is left to wallow in self-pity with only a carton of ice cream for comfort.
Well, this year is going to be different. If I cannot have a boyfriend, then I am at least going to treat myself with a good book. So, here are my recommendations of books to read on Valentine's Day, whether you are excited for a romantic evening or anticipating a night alone. You will find everything you need here.
For those Hopeless Romantics
If you are dreaming of a candlelit dinner at the Eiffel Tower, this might be the closest you can get. The romance will have you swooning, not to mention the charming accents.
