I purposely did not buy this book because of all of the hype. Silly, I know. This is the same mentality that caused a ten year delay in my reading of Kingsolver. And it is with great humility that I recommend this book.
After receiving Eat, Pray, Love, as a gift, and reading it, I can truly say that I am happy to have read it. This story of a woman struggling through a harrowing divorce looking for meaning in her new life gives hope and passion to all the adventurous strong women who read it. She travels through three "I" countries - Italy, Indonesia, India - searching for someone she hasn't known in a long long time. And if you let her in, you may find a bit of yourself too. I loved this book and highly recommend it in the new year!
