Media Amore!: A Cupid-Themed Quartet
Raya Kuzyk -- Library Journal, 01/21/2009
The year opened with Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway cat-fighting their way to the altar (Bride Wars; 1/9; Fox 2000 Pictures) and Renée Zellweger finding love in small-town Minnesota (New in Town; 1/30; Lionsgate). Helping to ring in Valentine’s Day this month are two more romantic comedies, each adapted from a best-selling book, as well as a pair of looooovely audio anthologies.
