The New York Times
The film's mix of romance and reading matter is seductive in its own right, providing comfy book-lined settings and people who are what they read and write.
78
A valentine to the happenstance miracle of lovers and other strangers, a movie that regards modern romance as something that is, ultimately, old-fashioned to its core.

Entertainment Weekly
A perfectly enjoyable star vehicle that does exactly what it sets out to do. [7 May 1999, p.66]

ReelViews
A feel-good movie that offers enough comedy and romance to warm the heart without risking a sentimental overdose.

Boasts a collection of oddball characters, some more sharply written than others.
