“I'm having such a hard time understanding why people dislike this book. I read it before it became a big deal. . .waay long before Oprah. I'm wondering if expectation has anything to do with it?”
“I agree with you. I think she did a great job and had some lovely ideas. ”
“I agree that expectations probably had a lot to do with it. When I bought the book, my expectations were extremely high and I was disappointed. While the "Eat" part was great, I just couldn't get into the "Pray" and couldn't connect with the book - but like you said, I think I was expecting more!”
“I think you're right. I heard from a heard that it was depressing so I went into it with that mind set and saw it depressing. After picking it up with a different frame of mind, I loved it.”
