Welcome to Litsy!

Theirs is undoubtedly the greatest love story of our time. I'm so obsessed with the two of them, its scary. All I have done this week is watch their movies. If you're interested in reading about Hollywood, and a love so furious, it burns, this book is for you.

Recently I found out that Taylor Swift has recommended this book. Now I'm a simple girl. I see Taylor recommending something, I add it to my TBR

The anatomy of Hollywood‘s most famous love story. And it‘s a hell of a ride. Long, complicated but laced with Tinseltown inside information. This was written before Taylor died - and with her cooperation, if not an interview with her. If you‘re interested in Hollywood, it‘s worth reading.

Saw this mentioned in a tweet this morning, two minutes later I‘d borrowed it from the library...

Has their ever been a more epic love story? No. I have been forever captivated by ‘Liz and Dick‘ and their more private relationship as ‘Elizabeth and Richard‘. This book confirms everything I wanted to be true. There was no greater a love story of two that were destined to be together and destroyed for it.

Since #WhenDovesCry is about a breakup, it makes me think of Elizabeth Taylor, who had quite a few breakups in her life. Furious Love is one of my favorite celebrity books. #PrinceofJuly @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @vkois88

My favorite lines: “when you get aroused playing Scrabble, that‘s love, baby”; “Richard, take a drink. You are so goddamned dull when you‘re not drinking”

These people are utterly ridiculous.

A couple who could never decide whether they were ex‘s!

I don't know if it was #TrueLove between Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, but I sure hope so. (This is a great book!) #heartsandhardcovers @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Omg I absolutely love everything in my #booktoteswap from @MallenNC !!! The tote is so me. I've been wanting to read The Chaperone for awhile now and I admit I squealed a little when I saw the Liz Taylor/Richard Burton book. 🤗 It's right up my alley. Thank you for everything! And thank you @cobwebmoth for hosting! 🤗🤓📚❤️🙌🏻

My favorite #celebritylove story is Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. This book is a great look at their relationship. I love Elizabeth Taylor, and I'm looking forward to reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, which has to be at least a little inspired by her. #sizzlinsummerreads @Tiffy_Reads

I don't read romance too often, but I do love a Hollywood biography. So the first book that came to mind for #InTheMoodForLove was this one, which chronicles the tumultuous relationship between Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. It's a great one! (If you like Elizabeth Taylor, How to Be a Movie Star: Elizabeth Taylor in Hollywood is also great.) #seasonsreadings2016

"The first time Richard Burton laid eyes on Elizabeth Taylor, he nearly laughed out loud." #greatfirstlines #epiclovestory

So romantic.
