Brandon R. (thundergodraiden) reviewed on 3/20/2011 + 6 more book reviews

Never trust hype. She eats, she prays, and she loves. Gilbert's soul searching really had potential for something great, but half the time I can't help but roll my eyes at her hyperbolic writing. There is no doubt in my mind that most of this memoir is fictitious. Some of her lines, as a friend pointed out to me, are very profound and poetically beautiful. The story itself is ridiculous. When I've talked about this book with people I've found that they either love or hate it. So I guess there is nothing to do but read it and judge for yourself.
