Book Review of Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia

Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia
reviewed on


I was really skeptical of this book after all the hype, both good and bad, that it received. And I don't tend to like books that are heavily weighed down by romantic angst, which I thought might play a huge role in this book. However, I finally read it and loved it. I do tend to like travel writing and memoirs anyway, and I recently got divorced, so perhaps those three things combined laid the necessary groundwork for someone to really get a lot out of this book. One more thing -- this book has even inspired me to start meditating regularly! (something I never thought I'd do).

I'm looking forward to reading Committed, the sequel.
