Default "Eat, Pray, Love"

"Eat, Pray, Love" by Elzabeth Gilbert is one woman's search for EVERYTHING.

It made me laugh and cry at the same time!

What a wonderful read!

I loved this book also. It took me awhile to get into it--Italy got a little boring for me--but then it was impossible to put down!!

Also read the book recently while on holiday. Loved it. Helped me relax and forget my worries and really made me long for more. But, it's not that simple. As long as we don't settle for what we don't want and go for what we deserve.

I really liked it...but didn't love it. Just couldn't relate to the spiritual stuff she went through.

Just my take on the book.

I read this book during my first couple of months of sobriety.......I loved it! Although, I enjoyed reading of her experiences, I cannot say that I think or feel the same way she does or did. None the less, it was a good read!

I enjoyed reading this a lot last winter. Non-fiction, though it pretty much read like a fairy tale, especially the later parts.

So I just picked up this book from my shelf - got it as a gift for Christmas last year - and have put off reading it for too long. I'll check back in when I finish! Hope everyone is having a great week.
