Is or has anyone fallen in love with this book as much as me?
Eliazbeth Gilbert is such a delight to read, she brings the best out in all of us. Here is a great clip of her speaking about being a genius.

I just read this too and it really resonated with me. It is one of those I think I need to keep on the nightstand and reread periodically because it has some really important things in it that get lost in the day to day life sometimes

| i started a few months ago but put it down...I wasn't captured by it. I keep meaning to pick it up again...does it just start kind of slow? I have been busy reading all the harry potter books, plus oh about 20 others! |

I read this book also, my daughters loved it. I thought it was okay, with the exception of one passage that really grabbed me. I guess I was supposed to read it just for that. :^)

Anyone get to watch the clip I attached?
It is 20 minutes long but
I found it so soothing.
Has anyone read anything else she has written? I love how she studies the history and orgins of words. Language is so intriguing.
Hey Teresa Sue, what passage grabbed you? Just curious...
