raylib (c/c++) reliable, good docs, more or less same idea as love2d plus 3d support, but more flexible, and can be used outside game development, like visualizing data. I suggest you pick this if you want to learn low level system language - c/c++
pygame never used it, but its popular python library, heard good things about it. i suggest if you are not trying to make resource intensive game, and you want to learn python which is a really valuable skill.
love2d (lua) is a productive, fun, good docs, and most importantly proven / field-tested 2d game library, with easy to learn fast to compile and fast to run language - lua. while lua might not have a lot of features as python, the big bonus is that its much more focused language, which is important because otherwise you can get easily distracted on bells and whistles that other programming languages provide, i know that from experience
