This past Valentine’s Day, a couple of my girlfriends and I found ourselves with no dates. Depressed about the situation, I decided that I would have them over for a little get together. I had a fantastic bottle of wine, homemade spaghetti sauce ...

Pros: Interesting read sprinkled with deep philosophical gems worth noting and memorizing.
Cons: Starts off kind of so-so.
The writer states in the introduction that this memoir was about her search for balance. However, despite the intriguing first sentence in part 1 of the book, "I wish Giovanni would kiss me," I did not really connect to this memoir until page 103. ...

Pros: Thought provoking, easy to read, descriptive and emotional Cons: None
I loved this book. The writing is very human; it felt like Ms. Gilbert was actually telling me the story personally. That may sound odd, but some authors just don't do that for me! I am close in age to the author, and not 100% sure of where I stand on ...
Pros: Easy to read and enjoy; felt like a friend's travel journal Cons: I would like to have read more!

Pros: This book helps you think deeply about your true life journey. Cons: There is not a sequel yet

Pros: Easy read, deep spiritual reflections Cons: The third part was slower than the first two
This was recommended to me by two separate people so I thought I'd give it a try. I started with the audio book but dropped it because I didn't much care with how the story started. I ended up giving it a 2nd try by reading it and enjoyed it much more ...

I borrowed this book from the library expecting to read the most amazing story to find ones self that had ever been written. I was a little disappointed after reading the book though. I first heard of Eat, Pray, Love while watching Oprah, She had the ...
This book relates exactly to how you have felt at one point in your life. The way she describes everything with such detail, and some humor in serious situations is absolutely amazing. I read this book from cover to cover in a day.
