I enjoyed most of this book. I think that the movie portrays her as rather shallow and self-indulged, but in reading the book I could truly understand her angst when she realized that her life was just not worth living the way she had until that moment. Depression is not a pretty place, and she's not afraid of showing that.
There is a depth to her self-discovery in the first part of the book that is not as evident toward the latter part but, nevertheless, it is an interesting journey of self-discovery, of letting go of the safe, expected path and letting go of fear.
It is thought provoking rather than entertaining.
