I recently got engaged and my family gave me Chicken Soup for the Bride's Soul. I just started reading it, but some of the stories I've read so far are so sweet and romantic. I've cried everytime I've attempted reading. I definitely recommend it for anyone who is engaged or married.
The book I read before this was Written in Water: the Life of Benjamin Harrison Eaton. Ben was born in Ohio, moved to Iowa, then came to Colorado for the mining rush. He loved it and stayed to homestead. He developed, or helped developed most of the irrigation system in northern Colorado, including reservoirs and irrigation ditches. He was also the forth Governor of Colorado. Very interesting for someone interested in water rights and supply, or Colorado history. If you have read James Micheners Centennial, it's a great follow up.
