Critics Review
Bad Love has a somewhat misleading title. Though it is about how we hurt and are hurt in love, it is ultimately about the resilience of love across space and time. – Jane Link * *Bad Love reflects the complexities of humanity rather than an idealist’s view on humanity. By the end, no one is a hero or villain. The reader takes something of a journey too, one that inspires us to be more open. * Rewrite London *
