Not worth finishing. I have nothing to learn from this selfish, self-centered and often stupid author. She really needs to seek a therapist and get her head straightened out.I couldn't get past the Eat portion of the book. I applaud Elizabeth Gilbert for being completely open with her life and relat...
I loved this book - there is just something about the way Elizabeth Gilbert reveals herself and her search for peace that make you want to be her friend (excuse the cliché, but it's true). Her description of life in Italy made me want to go back there. Her time in an ashram in India did not make m...
A really hard book to finish... A LOT of unsignificant mumble jumble. Of course, you can always learn something from it, you can take some higlights, meaninful concepts.To sum up: I really prefer the movie a thousand times over the book!
I picked this up, as you do, in a hostel in Salvador and read it through on one very rainy day.It seems to me that after gorging on Italian food Gilbert simply went on eating, consuming, taking, sucking up the exotic delights of the world, and finally exploited them all to profit from writing a fluf...
I had the audio version of this title, read by the author, and her voice and tone were kept so low and quiet, I couldn't hear it, even with my player set to the highest volume. I ended up feeling like she was trying too hard to sound "mindful".
At first Elizabeth Gilbert annoyed me no end, and Eat, Pray, Love seemed to be only inadvertently entertaining in the trainwreck sense I was able to “enjoy” Twilight. Had the book ended with Part One in Italy it would have been hard not to go full-throttle snark. Gilbert there just rubbed me the wro...
At times tedious and overwhelming but always enjoyable, I enjoyed visiting Ms. Gilbert's Italy, India and most especially Indonesia. I loved reading about her journey of self-acceptance.
I actually finished the book a week ago. I wanted to reread a few pages of the book before I did, plus I was sort of lazy to write the review. xD~~~Eat, Pray, Love tells a story of how the writer herself; Elizabeth Gilbert, journeys to three different countries in search of herself and God. I listen...
Not recommended. The basic premise of the book is that the author goes through a personal crisis - her failed marriage - and finds enlightenment in hedonism and platitudes, and the main the tool which she uses for this year-long quest, is not, as one would think an airplane, but magical thinking....
