This bookring is now officially lost

One for a bookring!

This lovely book is only 104 pages long and I read it in a day. From the inside cover I'll quote.

"There is a tree, An actual tree. A tree so beautiful, so magical, that lovers go there to sit beneath its leaves and branches and speak the feelings in their hearts. Some even propose marriage under its branches, passionate proposals given timeless eloquence by the magic of the Proposing Tree. This is the story of Fredrick and Carolyn, from their youth in the sixties until present day. They meet under the tree and enjoy "practicing" proposals of love and marriage, until Fredrick realises that he has fallen deeply in love and really means what he is saying. But she wants to remain "just friends." Here is a story for all time, about the true meaning of love, about selflessness, and the patience sometimes necessary to realise our dreams."

I wept reading this book it's so beautifully written...but then I'm just a softie!

This was a wonderful book. I started it yesterday morning and finished a couple hours later. I haven't even had time to get the address where it's going next. It's amazing how enduring love is!

Sent to cwolfgang - enjoy!
