LOL <br /><br />I have no idea when I'll get a chance to read it but I would like to before the movie comes out. So it will probably be this summer. I'll be sure to let you know. :)Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055116610295076439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055517804410962340.post-43716168268257098632010-03-26T08:13:19.592-07:002010-03-26T08:13:19.592-07:00I haven't read the book, but I do have a copy ...I haven't read the book, but I do have a copy laying around. A friend of mine loaned it to me ... oh gosh... could it be two years ago? Easily! She said take your time... I don't know if she realized I'd take THIS long. LOL! We should read it together, Leslie. Let me know when you're going to pick it up! :DChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055517804410962340.post-23818703713481180862010-03-24T21:23:57.109-07:002010-03-24T21:23:57.109-07:00Danielle ~ Thanks for the info on the book.

LOL <br /><br />This could be a case of the movie being better than the book. :)<br /><br />nath ~ yeah, it's chick lit. LOL I'm not even sure if I've read chick lit before. I'm willing to give this one a try. :DLesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055116610295076439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055517804410962340.post-52176724628394877002010-03-24T14:47:11.094-07:002010-03-24T14:47:11.094-07:00It feels a lot like a chick-lit book :D Not sure i...It feels a lot like a chick-lit book :D Not sure it's for me though... I like either action movies or comedies :D but I'll look forward to see what you think of it, Leslie :Dnathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055517804410962340.post-63898950804168794512010-03-24T14:30:46.619-07:002010-03-24T14:30:46.619-07:00I've read the book, and I quite liked it.

I really liked the parts where she was in Italy, especially because her whole motivation for going to Rome was to learn the language - because she thinks it sounds beautiful. I loved the impulsiveness.<br />The book kind of lost me when she went o India and Indonesia to find her 'spirituality'. She stays in a temple with other (yuppie) Westerners and she has to meditate, have a cone of silence etc... I'm really not into all that sort of stuff, and I found all that to be quite pretentious and boring.<br /><br />The romance in the book is quite subtle (and comes toward the end of the book). But it looks like the movie is making the romance a focal point, which could work really well.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08440460463119645788noreply@blogger.com
