ninetalevixen 's review for:
All About Love: New Visions
by bell hooks
I have a lot of opinions about this book, but in part due to the Principle of Charity (possibly the most important thing I have learned all semester) and in part because I’ve already spent much longer than I wanted to on this book, I’ll keep this brief. While I agreed with multiple points hooks made — particularly in the first two and last two chapters — I disagreed with a lot of the middle, exacerbated by her simplified and binary presentation: love ethic vs greed/abuse/corruption, traumatic childhoods keep us from losing our fear of love, true love exists but takes work and isn’t a guaranteed HEA, basically love cures all and would save the world if we would just let it.
