Negative Positive
Title: pretty annoying but slightly informative
Review: I really expected to like this book based upon all of the stellar reviews it got. May be it is my personality not matching up with hers, but I found myself incessantly irritated by the author's narcissism and sappiness. I am all for introspection and self-exploration. I have once or twice or, okay, a gazillion times, fallen prey to the itchy feet syndrome when confronted with a life crisis. I keep wondering why so many people liked this book, and it kind of reminds me of a Fried Green Tomatoes kind of thing, or maybe a Thelma and Louise thing... kind of a "you go girl" mentality. I found a lot of the information very interesting, especially regarding yoga and meditation, and it did make me think about my own spiritual life, but I couldn't help but think that maybe she was writing this book with her ex-husband and ex-lover David as an audience.
Is the review positive or negative?
