Unwritten Letters to You
H**S
This book is phenomenal
I was thrilled to finally be able to purchase this book! As a young, introverted, perhaps overly romantic christian man, I find that Todd's writing really strikes a chord with me. Although I think anyone who has ever loved will enjoy this book. Todd has a great gift for words, one that I envy. His tumblr is so encouraging, and I love everything he has to say about our relationship with Christ. Another reason I love his writing is because I really pick up on this deep sense of longing and searching for his true love. That's a feeling I understand well. It's so frustrating to have all these abstract thoughts and ideas about her, and to want so desperately for her to be concrete and tangible so that you don't have to imagine any more. You want it to be real, both now and forever. You want that chance to love her like Christ loved the church, to provide for her and be everything she needs in all the ways the ones before her couldn't. I really believe that I've found that now, and one of the main reasons I ordered this lovely book (other than for my own personal enjoyment of course!) is because my girlfriend is always so interested in trying to understand those feelings from my perspective. I used to write letters to the woman that I would spend my life with before we met, and I planned to give them to her when we finally met, but somehow I lost them, much to her dismay! This Valentine's Day, I've decided to order "Unwritten Letters To You" for her to try to understand how I feel about her and what it felt like to have spent my life waiting for her, as well as when we first met up till now. Plus, it's just a great book for anyone, really. I hope Todd doesn't mind me using his awesome book to help convey some of my feelings into relate able sentences for her. The Lord has given Todd a great gift, and he's a wonderful encourager of the saints. Keep up the good work, man. You're awesome

and I opened up this beautiful book and I sobbed
I don't have a lot of time on my hands, and I have a tendency to busy myself as a couping mechanism to forget how much I truly, truly hurt. And tonight I came home from a double with homework to do and I sat in my room, and I opened up this beautiful book and I sobbed. I read it in an hour and then I took another hour to re read and re feel it all again, I literally have mascara stained pages.But I cry because this book was my breakthrough. Todd has a heart after the Lord's, it's vulnerable, it's real, it's gut wrenching, it's every way you can say beautiful. And I was able to relate to him so much and so intentionally that my heart broke for him, and it broke for me too.I'm so thankful to have randomly stumbled across his tumblr so many years ago. I am so thankful for every personal prayer this man has responded to for me because I needed a brother in Christ at the time to just love me for me, and not try to get anything from it.Todd is one of a kind, and it shows in his writing and in his book. And I wish I could say all the pretty words to give this the highest praise but all I got is a voice im still learning to use. Read this and get a glimpse of Jesus' heart, let your heart pound and ring in your ears. Let the tears flow. Let yourself be loved.

Filled with Love and Encouragement
I can't even put into words how much I've been "patiently" waiting for this book to become available. A few years ago I started reading these quotes from this man named T.B. LaBerge. From my understanding this man was like best friends with C.S. Lewis and would sit around a campfire for hours upon hours worshiping and praising our Father and then sit down with a cup of coffee writing these amazing, crazy, raw, love filled, emotional yet unbelievably encouraging messages that would make you fall more madly in love with even just the idea of who Christ is and helped faith and love to grow much larger in our hearts. But then the truth was brought into the light. I simple click on a Tumblr page revealed it all. Todd B. LaBerge is very much alive (in spirit and in flesh) and well. Fully bearded (literally) with Christ' glory. I pray that this books brings you more love, laugher, faith, and compassion and patience into your lives. “To be able to communicate what our hearts most desire to speak is what we all long for.” -T.B. Laberge. Thank you Todd for being who you are and allow Christ’s amazing goodness to flow freely and evidently in your life.

Makes Me Want to Fall in Love Again
I remember coming across this author’s tumblr way back in the day; I didn’t realize until now that he had published his writings in book form. His writing is simple and unpretentious yet able to describe the phenomenon of love in its various forms. I’m surprised he has only written two books, I would love to read more, but this is an author who definitely understands quality > quantity.

I absolutely loved this book
I too found Todd on Tumblr and as soon as I found out he made a book I knew I had to purchase it. I absolutely loved this book!! It is a nice reminder to stay strong and keep hope-- after God's own heart first. I definitely felt God's words shining through Todd's writings in such a comforting way. I enjoyed it so much that I bought it for my best friend as a Christmas gift, she's almost finished with it now! :) I've also shared it with my household, it's a very beautiful book; raw, honest, overall great. You won't regret this purchase!

I love that the hope is still in the Christ that ...
I really appreciate how fully developed the book is. I love that the hope is still in the Christ that I know to be persistent, fully pursuing in love, despite our own refusal. There is so much of this that hit my heart in places I've expressed in my own pages. It's God's live for the world when He cannot fellowship with the ones he loved and loves. I also love how real this book is, no holding back yet still considerate of the "you" these words are being written to.

LOVE IT...
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book and my heart is in thousand pieces and can't feel the pain any longer.One question - is this book only has prints on odd pages? Didn't want to miss half of the book.

Worth $12.
I really thought this book would be more about the love of Christ as opposed to love between two people; that being said, I still enjoyed the book. It's an easy read, and I read the whole thing in under an hour.Some of them are pretty incredible and some of the poems are so-so. Worth $12.
