You start it, you read and you do not stop before the end. I must say, I have not often been this engrossed. I even read it in hardback, a rare thing, as I was so curious to find out what the hype was all about. I have already read Love Virtually because the original came out in Germany in 2006. Love Virtually is a funny, fast-paced and utterly absorbing novel, with plenty of twists and turns, about a love affair conducted entirely by email. Will their feelings for each other survive the test of a real-life encounter? But they keep putting off the moment – the prospect both excites and unsettles them. The erotic tension simmers, and it seems only a matter of time before they will meet in person. A few brief exchanges are all it takes to spark a mutual interest in each other, and soon Emmi and Leo are sharing their innermost secrets and longings. Being polite he replies, and Emmi writes back. It begins by chance: Leo receives emails in error from an unknown woman called Emmi. Writing is like kissing, but without lips.
