Product Description Elizabeth Gilbert is in her thirties, she has a husband, a house, and they're trying for a baby - she doesn't want any of it. A bitter divorce and a turbulent love affair later, she emerges battered and bewildered and realises it is time to pursue her own journey in search of three things she has been missing: pleasure, devotion and balance.

Journal-like novel July 28, 2010 This is supposed to be a journey to fight the ego. However, we find nothing but long descriptions of how she feels, and why, and events that happened to her... It's too self-centered, I'd say.
I was expecting more depth when it comes to her spiritual findings.
However, I'd say it's a good summer read. Not too difficult to read, easy language (best-seller-like) and entertaining most times.
Read, feel, think July 27, 2010 Dominique Anfossi (Villeneuve-Loubet, France) If you have resisted reading this book until now-- think again. Perhaps like me you expected it to be too prone to flights of mysticism or too intimately confessional or for any other pre-conceived notion. Parts of it will likely justify your fears - I had to spin a very personal definition of `God' and `pray' to not be constantly brought up short by those notions. But Eat, Pray, Love is one of those rare books which delivered double returns on each pause its text gave me. Laughter, tears or insights arrive in pairs or all three at a time; nothing is one dimensional; everything is open to interpretation.
The journey Elizabeth Gilbert took is hers. Yet her book took me on a journey of my own, and though I could have done so in the comfort of my home, I happened to read while travelling. Perhaps that helped me build the distance I needed to see the relevance of her experience to my own dilemmas and aspirations.
Elizabeth Gilbert delivers a memoir that did for me what Paolo Coelho's tales do in fiction: open a door into a place where life is larger than mere existence. Just for that I will re-read it again and again; I would recommend it to anyone with an open mind and a curious heart, and I would hope that men will not let the cover blurbs put them off.
A book to judge by its effect rather than by its content.
thoroughly enjoyable and uplifting! July 21, 2010 zoefrance This totally lived up to the hype I loved every page! Funny, warm, inspiring and uplifting. We can all relate to her experiences. I really enjoyed this and am passing on copies to friends and family to enjoy too - a fab summer read!
Indulge, moan, irritate July 20, 2010 Ashten (Scotland) I read frequently and although I don't usually read 'memoir' type books I thought I would give this a try, indeed I was looking forward to it arriving.
I have experienced real loss, love Italian food, have encountered God and have visited Bali recently, so you might think I would enjoy this book, but alas I did not.
I made myself finish the book as I thought it might improve. It didn't. I failed to glean any life insights from it nor did I find it that humorous.
How can you be crying on the bathroom floor for weeks/months on end unless you have experienced actual tragedy? A divorce after a few years with no children involved is not a tragic event. Pull your self together Gilbert. One of my friends is a single mother with three children, struggling to get by after divorcing her abusive alcoholic husband who hospitalised her. Another has severely disabled twins who need round the clock care. These women are not self indulgent and whiney they get on with it, with extreme fortitude and grace.
If you are interested in a genuinely inspiring spiritual journey I would recommend 'Chasing the dragon' by Jackie Pullinger.
writing that shines... July 20, 2010 bookfiend (uk) I was put off reading this initially as I had made the(rather judgemental)assumption that it was going to be self indulgent, mystical, preachy twaddle and not my kind of thing at all.When I did actually get round to reading it I became totally absorbed in her amazing description of both her physical and spirtual journey.Sure,there is a lot of navel gazing but it is written about in such a engaging, honest and open way - I particularly love the way she writes about the new friends she meets along the way.Definitely worth reading.
