Title: I was open-minded..yet the door began to shut
Product review: I began reading this book with the hope that it would open up a new narrative to me of a world that I thought I had, for many years, shared in some format or another. However, while reading the first 10 chapters, it appeared to me as an over-engrossed blog full, not of insightful learning/challenging experiences, but of the author's need to explore every vocabulary word that she could dig out of her mind to describe foods that she wanted to eat. To me, it got old fast..off topic...seemed like the 'worse case scenario' of any experience, had this author at its worst demise. Just seemed too 'poor me' and truthfully, unbelievable at many turns. To the point that..I felt..she was just trying to fill up the pages was nothingness as her publisher made her have a quota of pages to turn in, more than the rough draft she might have initially presented. As you would probably guess, I don't suggest you run out to buy this one.
