Is love a noun in loves reading?

No, 'loves' is the verb. In the sentence, 'Bob loves reading.' the subject is Bob. What is the action? Bob loves... The reason that the verb is confusing is that the object of the sentence 'reading' is a gerund, a verb that is acting as a noun. Reading is normally a verb but it is not the action in this sentence. It's not telling us that Bob is reading, it's telling us what Bob 'loves'.
