Title: Indulge, Gaze at Your Navel, Obsess
Review: This book starts off well; it is well written, poignant, humorous, and insightful. Somewhere before the end of Italy though, Elizabeth Gilbert goes from all these lovely and positive traits to a person bent on proving that she deserves to have whatever the heck it is she wants. In fact, we should all do ourselves the favor of becoming self absorbed and selfish.And that is the journey that Gilbert suffers us on. She deserves a break today and everyday and sets out to figure out, "What does Elizabeth want." Period.And really how terrific is that, an advance for a book, this book, telling all of us how to achieve selfishness, like we need told, duh.I really enjoyed the first third of the book, but Gilbert gets to be so full of herself, her wisdom, her desires that it is just got b-o-r-i-n-g.Comment
