More info about this month's book:
This month’s book is about one of our favorite topics: love, yay!
In all about love, Bell Hooks invites us to look at love through multiple perspectives. She asks what it truly means to give and receive love, why it so often fails us, and how we can learn to love more honestly and intentionally.
Hooks traces the roots of our understanding of love back to childhood, showing how our early experiences shape the way we connect as adults. Through her thoughtful and compassionate lens, she explores the many forms of love, from self-love and friendship to romantic and spiritual love, revealing how our culture’s narrow definitions have limited our ability to fully experience it.
Both deeply personal and sharply critical, all about love blends philosophy, psychology, and social reflection. Hooks reminds us that love is not just a feeling but a practice built on honesty, care, respect, and commitment. It is a book that dares us reflect on how we love, unlearn what we were taught about love, overcome shame and feel inspired to love with courage and clarity.
