If you're not one to write a grocery list let alone journal your feelings for your significant other, you can gift the words of others to that person by way of "Love Letters of Great Men." Full of romantic overtures that are significantly longer than the 140 characters and emojis many of us have become accustomed to using, it is a beautiful book full of beautiful sentiments.

Love Letters of Great Men is 150 pages that spans a variety of generations. Uncrate reports that it is full of "poems and letters of both true loves and scandalous affairs alike from some of history's most well known men." Although some might think it a cop out to gift this on [Valentine's Days](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hallmark-valentines-day), others will think it thoughtful.
