I wanted so badly to like this book a lot, because I, too, am a spiritual seeker, and I know that was the author's purpose - to write a novel for spiritual seekers. And she did that - but it all seemed a little too easy for this protagonist to chan...more

I'm probably the last person in the world to read this book, and I really liked it. It was cheerful, and she had some very good points to make.

Douglas Coupland
“In periods of rapid personal change, we pass through life as though we are spellcast. We speak in sentences that end before finishing. We sleep heavily because we need to ask so many questions as we dream alone. We bump into others and feel bashful at recognizing souls so similar to ourselves.”
Douglas Coupland, Shampoo Planet

Elizabeth Gilbert
“But is it such a bad thing to live like this for just a little while? Just for a few months of one's life, is it so awful to travel through time with no greater ambition than to find the next lovely meal? Or to learn how to speak a language for no higher purpose than that it pleases your ear to hear it? Or to nap in a garden, in a patch of sunlight, in the middle of the day, right next to your favourite fountain? And then to do it again the next day?”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
