Okay, I haven't actually finished reading this yet but I absolutely love it nevertheless!
funny
informative
inspiring
lighthearted
medium-paced
A bit skewed (mostly men, lots of F Scott Fitzgerald, no Austen) but beautifully done!
4.5
Letters of Note is a collection of unique and interesting correspondences throughout history.
I rarely listen to audio books, as my mind wanders and I lose thread of what is said, but the audio book version of this book was excellent as the letters were narrated by some of my favorite actors and actresses such as Olivia Colman, Mark Strong, Benedict Cumberbatch, Gillian Anderson and others.

Great collection. Some of these 125 letters were better than others, but it was nice to read a few a day, and I found some pieces that will stick with me a long time.
A fine collection with an array of famous and un-famous names. Poignant and moving, funny and insightful. Heavy on American correspondence though. A sequel book would do well to broaden the range- and maybe arrange letters chronologically if possible.
Hidden treasure between the covers. Letters from around the world, different times, the famous and not so famous, all have one thing in common, they are fascinating! I've had this on my coffee table for a couple weeks and everyone who has picked it up has had trouble putting it down.
A fascinating collection for moving, surprising and funny letters from the highest of the high of the lowest of the low and everybody in between. Read as part of the Read Harder challenge 2019
cool book but why did Gandhi gave minimum efforts while writing to Hitler like?? sir??? I am so glad that the letter wasn't delivered
