Reading for the 2nd time. Most recently started March 15, 2025.
This book completely cracked me open and was a balm for me this week. I connected with this 20x more than I did All About Love and that is saying a lot. So oddly relevant to everything right now (divorce, friendship breakup, developing more confidence, moving) etc. bell writes with so much clarity it's a shame that her views about the value of self-love are often over simplified, but of course that happens to everything she said. I will re-read this book again and again, I highlighted my copy so much. Gosh. I'm so thankful for her words, if anyone asks me about my views about love I will just hand them this book. A new favorite.

"“We do not learn merely by what parents say; we learn by what they do� Their daughters are not fooled. They get the message that being thin will determine their value, that it will be a crucial determinant of whether they will be loved.�"
