Rating  - Great Book!
After reading a bit each night, I found myself rooting for Liz to find inner peace, and identifying ways to do so within myself along the way.
Rating  - Interesting Journey!
Sometimes people loose there way and their faith. They look all over the world trying to find the pieces to fill that empty void. Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia by Elizabeth Gilbert is a story of a women who did just that. It's a very interesting journey to say the least.
By the way, I see from reading the reviews on this site some people have recommend my book, "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers: A Message for Everyone," and again I just want them to know how much I appreciate their recommendation, especially at such a excellent site. I wrote this book out of love and for the glory of God and Jesus, not for my own fame or fortune. I welcome people to read my book, I'm sure you'll find this non-fiction account of a loving God just as and inspiring.
Rating - an amusing look at a spiritual, physical and mental journey
Gilbert's self deprecating writing style makes this very heavy journey a very quick and amusing read. Gilbert had the luxury of spending an entire year focusing on healing herself, physically, mentally and spiritually, which most people will never be able to do. But her journey reminds us of how important it is to look at where you have been to understand how you got to where you are, and that you need to develop all parts of yourself inside and out, to be truly at peace.
Rating  - The middle is really rough
I started reading this book months ago and I was very excited about the first part in Italy. I thought she was a very compassionate, human person, who I really identified with. However, once she got to the Ashram, I stumbled and felt very sorry for her, but in a less than comapssionate way. I had a hard time getting through the self doubt, postulating, incredibly sad person she wrote about and put the book down--for months. I recently picked it up and was able to get through India and found the journey and time spent in Indonesia a little easier to understand and she became more identifiable to me. I don't really get the medicine guy's importance, because she quickly threw him over for the boyfriend. In the end, I don't understand what she running from, she never really conveyed what was so miserable about her life that wasn't self inflicted. I wish there were 1/2 stars, because this is between a 2 and 3.
