Lots of helpful little nuggets about love, interspersed with Zoe's clever, sassy humour. I'm giving it an extra star for the design and layout alone, as the whole thing is just so damn beautiful.

I love Zoë. Her writing style is warm, compassionate, empowering, and zesty, and this is a collection from her decade as an advice columnist for Cosmo. This is no Esther Perel, but it's light-hearted, fun, and extremely easy to read.

Zoe Foster Blake is amazing and for someone new to her work this would be a great amalgamation of her previous relationship books. I've read all of her other books so for me this was simply re-stating a lot of the lessons she had already published in other works. She does try to be a lot more gender neutral and inclusive in LOVE though.

Colloquial writing but bang on my kinda tone. Kinda wish I’d had a book like this on my shelves throughout my 20s.
I’m very single currently but it has so many good messages (and some shit ones but nobody is perfect and ZFB isn’t claiming to be). I’ve definitely aged past the target market for this (as I said, I wish I had it on my shelves throughout my 20s) but it’s a decent reminder of some things to keep in mind at all times while navigating relationships.

I love Zoë Foster Blake and I loved this book. I wish I had it 5 years ago. She spits out some hard truths which are things we’ve all probably read or heard before, but coming from Zoë it feels like it’s coming from a close friend who sincerely cares about you. Her writing style is so engaging. She is upfront, honest, raw, and I found myself constantly laughing and ‘uh-huh’ing along. It’s definitely a light and easy read, however, despite being a book titled ‘Love!’, it only really deals with one kind of love - heterosexual romantic love - and I think it would have been really great to have had a wider concept of love explored deeper including the platonic love found between friends, family, and coworkers etc. as these are often some of our longest and complex relationships.
