Helpful Score: 3

This is not a book you rush home to curl up in bed with. It is slow moving, and more of a historical study of the evolution of marriage/marriage in different cultures than it is a story about Elizabeth and Felipe. It can be pretty dry in certain spots, but Gilbert's antecdotes and metaphors were so beautiful and memorable that it made the book worth reading.
