Eat ,pray ,love

Eat,pray,love

I am a very big fan of reading : not a day passes by without me reading atleast a chapter of a book . I've tried them all : fiction and non fiction , science fiction, romance,comedy ,drama,tragedy. Name it and I've read it. I had dates with some of the worse books ever written ,but that hasn't discouraged me so far. The last book I read was the New York Times bestseller : Eat,pray,love by Elizabeth Gilbert ( photo from here ).
I initially bought it as a gift for a friend, but then ended buying a copy of my own. And it was a really great decision ,because the book is great.

The story follows Elizabeth on her journey to find balance after a nasty divorce. It can get really captivating , not only because the beginning of the story might be similar to so many women , but because Elizabeth's writing style is very catchy and gets you really involved. I never had the urge to get to Italy , but while reading her book , I decided that if I won;t see Italy I'm the biggest loser and if I don;t learn Italian I'm nothing. Just because she was so into this sort of stuff made me want to do the same things. It's a really special thing for a writer to be able to do that : it means he or she has a huge talent.
I recommend it with all my heart,because it is a story of true self love and will guide you into taking decisions that are good for you ,not only for everybody else. And you can also learn some meditation techniques and mantras to help you cleanse your spirit.
Hope my little review made this book enticing to you. Can't wait for some oppinions.

  18. I need to read it!! thanks for introducing this - I haven't seen the movie yet so it'll be totally new to me (I always hate it when I first see the movie and then read the book, it's so much better the other way around don't you agree? :p )
