Fool in Love: One Man's Search for Romance . . . or Something Like It

by Steven Ivory

The delirious pursuit of love is a search that inevitably takes us all both down the well-beaten path and into new, uncharted territory. In this collection of thirty-three heart-tugging and hilarious essays, celebrated Electronic Urban Report columnist Steven Ivory chronicles his lifelong quest for that thing we all The Meaningful Relationship.
The journey begins with his first love -- his mother -- before making an amusing pilgrimage through lust-filled adolescent affections, an awkward introduction to sex, and a series of poignant and funny adventures of unrequited love, bungled blind dates, and the Ones That Got Away.
Propelled by a wit rivaled only by a willingness to bare his soul, Ivory's revelations on kissing, game-playing, sexual satisfaction, and personal insecurities culminate in a startling, life-altering discovery that touches your funny bone as well as your heart.

Reading about a man's perception of love and his views on his relationships was very eye-opening to me and it also showed the importance of knowing what makes you you and he dived into that when he spoke about his relationship with his parents. It also had a little excerpt about having self-love and how important that is

Steven is a friend of mine so I am a little bit partial to this book, but it's a fun and light romance read.
