Negative Positive
Title: 1/3 Good
Review: I know this story is about a woman searching for, well, the meaning of life or really the meaning of her life as she enters a sort of midlife crisis. I really enjoyed the first journey which was through Italy. That part was great and I really wanted to like the rest, however I just never made it that far in enjoyment. I finished the book but I'm just not a fan of this one.Gilbert is a talented writer and this book is written well but just not terribly interesting to read about a person who just eats and travels, has sex and then moves about leaving all responsibilities behind. I wanted something a little deeper. It would have been great if the culture of each location was expanded upon. I'm also not sure why the author felt the need to include her own political opinions in this book. Didn't seem necessary to the story. Silly really.
Is the review positive or negative?
