Maggie’s Little Book of Love Necklace

My granddaughter opened this on her birthday and the first thing she did was hold it up and say 'there's a real book inside, grandma, a real one.' She showed everyone at the party.

This is really special. My granddaughter loved every message in the little book. Knocking one star only because the engraving on the book cover was slightly less defined than it looks in the product photo, but honestly it's a minor thing and she hasn't noticed.

I wasn't sure a 7-year-old would appreciate this but my granddaughter carries it everywhere. She showed it to the checkout lady at the grocery store. 'My grandma gave me this, it has a special book inside.' The lady was visibly moved.

My son touched the pendant a few times during dinner after I gave it to him. He wasn't saying anything but he was saying everything. I know my son.

My son got this before his first baby was born. I wanted him to know that becoming a dad doesn't make him any less my son. He understood exactly what I meant.

I gave this to my son and said no occasion, just wanted you to have it. He said 'mom you don't do things for no reason.' I said this time I do. He didn't believe me but he put it on.

Bought this for my granddaughter's graduation. She's off to college and I wanted her to take something with her that felt like home. She wore it at the graduation dinner. The chain length is good, sits just right on her.

My son has the grandson version actually because my mother gave it to me first and I gave it to him as his inheritance of meaning, if that makes sense. Three generations carried in one small necklace.

I have three daughters and I'm buying this for all of them now. Got the first one as a test and my daughter cried and read every message to her sister. The book is tiny but you can absolutely read what's inside. Didn't expect this price point to feel this quality.

The quality surprised me. I expected something more fragile at this price but the hinge on the tiny book is solid and the chain doesn't feel flimsy. My son has worn it for three months and it still looks new.

My son called it 'actually nice looking' which from a 22-year-old man means it's exceptional. He wore it to his girlfriend's family dinner. She asked about it and he said his mom gave it to him.

my son joined the marines and I gave him this before he shipped out. his sergeant saw it and asked what it was. my son said 'it's from my mom.' that sergeant nodded like he understood.

My son got teary and he never gets teary. He's 28. He opened the little book at dinner with the family and read it quietly and then put the necklace on and wore it for the rest of the evening. His sister asked him about it later and he let her read the messages.

The granddaughter version has messages that are so tailored and loving. My granddaughter read them three times and then asked me to read them too. We sat together and read the whole thing. It was one of those quiet moments I won't forget.

My granddaughter turned 16 and wanted something more grown-up than what she's had before. This hit the mark perfectly. She said it felt like a real piece, not a gift shop necklace.

My granddaughter is 16 and I'm 68 and I think about what I want to leave her with in the time we have. This is a start. She knows it. She wears it every day.

This is my second order. Got the daughter version first and the granddaughter version now. Both times the reaction has been the same: quiet, then crying, then the necklace going on and not coming off.

got this for my daughter who just had a baby. she's a new mom and i wanted her to know how proud i am. she opened it at her baby shower in front of everyone and you could hear the sniffles around the table. ten out of ten.

bought this for my grandson for no occasion. he's in middle school and middle school is hard and i wanted him to know someone sees him. he texted me a thumbs up which is middle-school for 'this meant a lot to me.'

My son put this on and went quiet for a while. He gets like that when something actually hits him. His sister asked if he was okay and he said yeah, just reading. He's been wearing it for two months.

My daughter said this is the only piece of jewelry she's ever been given that feels like it was made specifically for her. I didn't say anything. The messages inside said everything.

My granddaughter is in her first year of high school and it's a hard transition. I wanted to give her something she could reach for on a bad day. She texts me sometimes just 'read it today grandma' and I know exactly what she means.

I ordered this for my daughter for Christmas and I was genuinely worried it would look cheap when it arrived. It doesn't. The little hinge on the book works perfectly and the messages inside are exactly what I'd want to say to her but never quite find the words for. She's 24 and said it was her favorite gift.

I gave my grandson this before his first year away at college. He packed it in his overnight bag. His roommate saw it and asked about it and apparently said 'that's actually really cool.' Approval from a 19-year-old is hard to get.

The pendant is smaller than I imagined but that turned out to be a good thing. My daughter is petite and it sits perfectly on her. She opened the little book right away at Christmas and read every word. She asked me to read it too and we both got emotional.

I gave my daughter this when she moved out for the first time. She was nervous and excited. She opened it and said 'now I have something to be brave with.' I'm not going to recover from that sentence.

bought the son version for my son who just became a police officer. i wanted him to carry something with him. he wears it every shift. his partner asked about it and he said it's from his mom.

My mom is older now and I wanted to give her something that came from all of us, her grandchildren. We got the granddaughter version for her to give to my daughter, and then I watched two generations of my family cry at a kitchen table. Good gift.

I'm 72 and my granddaughter is 22. We've always been close and I wanted to give her something she'd keep forever. This is that. She put it on and said 'I'm never taking this off.' She's not a dramatic girl so I believe her.

bought this for my son on his 21st birthday. he lives three hours away now and doesn't get back as often. he opened the little book and then looked up at me and said 'i didn't know you felt all this.' apparently i don't say it enough. this necklace said it for me.

my son works nights and I wanted him to have something to read during a break when things feel heavy. he texts me sometimes 'reading the book' and i know what he means. we've never talked more.

My grandson kept looking at the little book during dinner like he was thinking something. Later he asked me which message I wrote. I told him I didn't write them but I picked them for him. He said 'yeah I know.' good kid.
