Stuck on YouQuirky love quotes that stick in your memory…and on your stuff.

Hopeful (and hopeless) romantics will find quotes to inspire, amuse,

moment to think about the one you love. Each quote includes a

thought-provoking, love-inspiring phrase called out in bold type and

eye-catching color. Bonus: ten pages of Stickable Quotes to post where

they’ll mean the most—seal a love letter, stick in a journal, put on a

coffee mug or water bottle, decorate a special bottle of wine, use as gift

tags, add a romantic touch to scrapbook pages, or post on a makeup

(or shaving) mirror to start your morning with a warm fuzzy feeling.

Read, share, stick, mail…fall in love again and again.

Here are just a few of the 140 quotes you’ll find inside:

• “I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be

no more hurt, only more love.”—Mother Teresa

• “Stop waiting for prince charming. Get up and find him. The poor idiot

may be stuck in a tree or something.”—Unknown

• “If grass can grow through cement, love can find you at every time in

your life.”—Cher

“Uncle John’s Bathroom Readers are always excellent. Over the past 20 years,

I’ve read these books, given them as gifts to my husband and sons for Christmas and birthdays. The writing is always good, and this book (Fully

Loaded), like so many others that we’ve had over the years, is definitely worth reading

and definitely worth owning.” —IBPA Benjamin Franklin

Awards Judge“My friend in school was reading

Bathroom Readers, so then I bought a couple, and now my mom says I’m just threatening her with my intelligence.”

—Chase O.

“Our friend Patrick Merrell has a new book out that would make a great gift for the elementary

or middle school child in your life. Hunting For Heroes, which also has the title iFlush because it’s published by the infamous Uncle John’s series, is a

beautiful book jam-packed with puzzles galore. The lucky recipient of this book will stay busy for

hours learning about heroes, big and small.” —Deb Amlen, The New York Times, 4/17/14

“I have learned so much from you guys. Thank you for being

amazing!” —Reece T.

“I love these books! I read them on my commute bus in the morning,

and during my lunch hour. They are definitely not just for the bathroom.”

—Alison G.
