A beautiful book that I read at the perfect time. This collection of interviews with various people and reflective essays from the author explored an array of perspectives on love , from romantic, love for God, those who are carers, those with disabilities, love for strangers and much more. The book investigates loves power in this world, and all that goes with it, including crucially loss and grief. 

This book for me is a map giving guidance in a time in my life where I seek to build more connections and strengthen those I already have. Crucially it's helped me reflect on how love can change and take many forms, if I'm open to that. 

I'd recommend anyone to read this and to be open to the varied perspectives offered throughout it's pages

Simply stunning; I am moved. Natasha Lunn is truly a writer to be admired. I feel her writing in my soul. I feel understood witnessing her words. I learned in this book, that that in and of itself is a type of love connection. Love is boundless, and so beautiful, and so painful, and this book truly captures every facet of all that experiencing love can do to us. Never is any one experience the same, but we are unified by them nonetheless. I think this is a book everyone can learn from, and should be on some required reading lists. There's the added bonus that if you enjoy a particular interview, that person likely has their own book and/or other medium that delves further into their worlds. Incredible!

Wow! This was the first audiobook I listened to without having previously read the hard copy (if you exclude listening to The Famous Five books when I was a kid, lol). I really enjoyed the interviews being read often by the people who gave them and Natasha‘s story made me positively weep in the car. Definitely check the trigger warning if you plan on listening to it but be assured that so many clever people contributed to this book and Natasha framed and contextualised all of the interviews in a beautiful way. I definitely have to get a copy of the physical book as well because I will highlight the hell out of it!

It took me a long time to finish this book but it was really good. Its a great overall exploration of love in all its forms and the progression of love: finding it, keeping it alive, and losing it.
