I don't think she hates it either, she just didn't get the creative control on it like she did with MY December. I was talking to a friend about this, and he thinks All I ever wanted was sorta a trade for My December which is a good point. I still love this album though, my main complaint was she didn't write enough on it, her lyrics are just so amazing and she doesn't need the help of big time song writers. She does a good job with these songs, but she has an amazing talent to write as well as sing.
