A review by from_the_stacks
The Course of Love by Alain de Botton

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.

This book's too busy philosophising - about how apparently everyone only marries cos they're lonely and why it's okay to cheat - to actually let us get close to the characters or care about them; they just feel like subjects of a scientific study or something. I chopped it up to make collages but even then there aren't that many interesting words to use 😔 
Two stars for boringness (and why all the graphic sex scenes ... we don't need to know all that ... just ew).
