When the book club selected a book from the Eat Pray Love author, I simply assumed it would be cut from chick-lit cloth, maybe heartwarming, maybe uplifting. When I realized it was a historical I thought, ok, I'm down with that. What I didn't expect was something to be quite so literary and scientif...
No-recomendado por Lau Me propongo leer de principio a fin libros considerados "malos". Mi intención es encontrar al menos UNA cualidad buena en ellos y reseñarlos objetivamente siguiendo 20 puntos a desarrollar brevemente. (Los puntos varían según el género del que se trate.)Si tienen ganas de No-r...
I did not love the book. But I commend Elizabeth Gilbert for writing this book. When I was reading this book and going with her on this journey, I felt that I knew what she meant. I have had moments where I sat on the floor in front of my bed and prayed to God and asked: what do I do? I know people ...
Our passions and our reasons determine who we are and how we see the world. The protagonist, Alma, is all left brain, scientific, analytical, rational and good at language arts. The two other main characters Prudence (good at poetry, dance, and music), her sister, and Ambrose who sees the world on...
Tylko pierwsza część o Italii daje się przeczytać. Ci Włosi, piękny Rzym, pyszne jedzenie i dźwięczny język... Ech, można się zakochać :) Natomiast kolejne części szły mi jak po grudzie i w końcu doszłam do wniosku, że nie warto się męczyć.
The good:The mossy cover of the ARC I got was lovely. I don’t know why they changed it to a dark one or the kindle one that shows a woman going to the jungle. Despite how I feel for the contents of the book, that botanical cover was pretty nice. It fit the book perfectly.The life lessons from Alma’s...
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 thought I had read other books by Elizabeth Gilbert but was mistaken. The book I attributed to her was by another author. I wanted to read one of her books because she is writing a blurb for my daughter's fiance, Megan Kruse, who has a remarkable book coming out next spring. Anyway, this was my fi...
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...
