Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given?

I had planned to do this tag a long time ago, but somehow it just got missed. After reading Tshhar's last post, I finally set my banana fingers to work....
My somewhat rusted memory informs me that I'd read some of these books very long ago. The titles are just vaguely familiar. And in some cases, like the Agatha Christie ones, I usually just read the pages at the beginning and the end. So that qualifies as scanning. NOT reading.
One more thing. I dunno if I'm allowed to do this, but I've added one more rule to this tag. I apologize for the adulteration.....
RULES:
*Bold the titles you've read
*Italicize the ones you want to read
*Leave blank the ones that you aren't interested in.
* Add any 5 titles of your choice in this list,before you pass on the tag.
New Rule: Rate the books you have read from '*' (1) to '* * * * *' (5).
