When I first joined the list, I felt very awkward using the "love" word to denote my strong positive feelings about a particular work or body of works. But, I went ahead and now have no problem using it at all. Is it appropriate? Why not? There's no law against it, and common usage is on the side of using it for more than "people". For me, the word "love" is fine for anybody or anything I have strong positive feelings about and want to engage in frequently. Don Satz [log in to unmask]
