Product Description
This beautifully written, heartfelt memoir touched a nerve among both readers and reviewers. Elizabeth Gilbert tells how she made the difficult choice to leave behind all the trappings of modern American success (marriage, house in the country, career) and find, instead, what she truly wanted from life. Setting out for a year to study three different aspects of her nature amid three different cultures, Gilbert explored the art of pleasure in Italy and the art of devotion in India, and then a balance between the two on the Indonesian island of Bali. By turns rapturous and rueful, this wise and funny author (whom Booklist calls -Anne Lamott-s hip, yoga- practicing, footloose younger sister-) is poised to garner yet more adoring fans.

 Female Travel Adventure September 10, 2010
jeff crimmel (Phoenix, Arizona)
My wife is the reader in the house so I am able to pick and choose from her many books that she has read and Eat, Pray, Love was one of them. As the movie approached I was determined to finish it before the book became all about Julia Roberts. While reading the book I was able to get in touch with the emotional part of Elizabeth's journey. Italy, India and Bali are such different places and the feeling she experienced in each allowed the reader to follow along on a wonderful adventure that helped change Elizabeth into who she is now. While we are still changing from day to day, I feel that travel and living abroad is a real gift in helping to find out who you are and to see the world in a bigger frame and knock out the visors that so many people live behind today in their world views.
The Movie was close to the book so if you liked one then see or read the other.

 Eat, Pray, Love September 10, 2010

Book should have ended with Part 1 (Eat) and I would have rated it 3 stars - but, for me, Part 2 was progressively worse and I couldn't force myself to continue reading.
Pretty Good Product! September 10, 2010

Product came in timely manner. It is a little bit more beat up then described but is still readable.
Not what I anticipated September 10, 2010
Kara L. Carey (Connecticut, USA)
For the past few years, every time I have passed this book in a store, I have picked it up, wanting to read it. For whatever reason, I always put it down, never buying it. When the movie came out, I figured it was a sign that it was good so I bought it. I can NOT get into it. I guess the word is dry.
