A compelling read but unsatisfying compared to the richness and depth of McCarthy's other books.

Interesting book. Author is very self centered and comes off as a braggard who was framed by the navy. Still enjoyed some of his yarns. Good vacation book

i don't get all the negative reviews of this book. i read it out of straight up curiosity, & found myself pleasantly surprised by how much i liked it. i only read it at night when i was done with all my work for the day, when i could change into my pajamas & put my feet up, so it took me like a week to get through it, but it was a really nice week. the gist can be gleaned from the eighty gazillion other reviews on goodreads (& everywhere else in the world), but basically: elizabeth gilbert was feeling seriously depressed & confused after her horrible, drawn out divorce. so she decided to go traveling for a year. she went to italy first, just to hang out, eat a lot of pasta, & finally learn italian. then she spent four months in india, living at an ashram & meditating all day. then she went to indonesia (bali, specifically) to hang out with a balinese medicine man for a while. she had already written a few books, so her publishing house gave her an advance to write a book about her travels. this is the result. i don't know, man. i liked it. it wasn't totally my style, since i am not at all religious or spiritual & am not really into listening to other people go on & on about their own spiritualities. so i was not really looking forward to the india/ashram portion of the story...or even the balinese medicine man part, because i feared it would be a continuation of all the spirituality crap, with a heaping helping of the "noble savage" thrown in for good measure. i mean, half the bad reviews cite liz gilbert as a spoiled yuppie white lady who ignores the poverty right in front of her face while she travels around the third world, footloose & fancy free. but i didn't really see much that bothered me, politically. even all the parts about being in the ashram were okay because she was drawing these larger life lessons from her experiences there, stuff that doesn't necessarily apply just to people who are spiritual or believe in god. (maybe i should mention that i am one of the few atheists who does not hold people with faith in god or some higher power in contempt. i am all for people believing or not believing in whatever they like in that respect.) it seems to me that a lot of people who wrote negative reviews were just jealous or something. i know that sounds kind of ridiculous, but so do a lot of the negative remarks i have heard about this book. shit like, "must be nice to get an advance to travel around the world, eating pasta & meditating. what a spoiled yuppie." well...yeah. it must be nice. i mean, good for her. she obviously worked at establishing her publishing career before she wrote this book, or she wouldn't have gotten the advance. so she used the money to do something she wound up really enjoying. why is that a reason to criticize her? some people say that this book is too self-absorbed. for example, in bali, liz meets an older man & they begin a romance. she writes about having sex too much & getting a bladder infection. "TMI!" croak the haters. well, okay, maybe it could have been edited out without really being missed from the larger narrative, but come the fuck on. the overwhelming majority of people, while they are in the process of falling in love, are very interested in discussing all the particulars of the person with whom they are falling in love & the circumstances in which it is happening. ESPECIALLY writers, especially writers who already have a very confessional style. throughout the book, liz sprinkles little excerpts from her diaries & stuff. after 300 pages of this, it stands to reason that she'd mention her bladder infection too. it really was not a big deal. the last thing i will mention about all the criticism directed at this book is that a lot of it comes from people who are angry for some reason because liz got divorced in the first place. she goes to great lengths not to vilify her husband or justify her decision to leave him. so a lot of critics are all, "what a bitch, leaving a perfectly decent husband to go cavorting around bali with some sugar daddy." i've been divorced, i initiated the divorce, & i didn't do it because my husband was a bad guy. i did it because i was unhappy. & it was a really difficult decision. it was one of the hardest things i have ever done, but also one of the smartest, & these things are challenging enough without people casting aspersions. i really wonder where people get off thinking they can make judgments like that about someone else's private life. i know i didn't write much actually about the book. sorry. but you can find a lot of other people who will rave about it. this is just what i thought of some of the common detractions.

Two stories in one. Historical look at a woman in 1800s in the day of "plural" wives (Morman church)...and cut to today (with a cult similar to the recent one where all the children were taken from the wives). Wonderfully written. A tad too long toward the end. (Ebershoff could have wrapped it up sooner.) I wish I belonged to a book club for this one--it would take hours to discuss it!!

This is such a powerful, beautiful book. It takes you where you have never been before. Very sad, but also glorious. Not religious, but very spiritual. I know I will reread this many times. Made me rethink some of my ideas of God, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I recommend this to anyone who likes to go "outside the box."

MICHELLE'S REVIEW: RATING : 4.5 CRAZY INNOCENCIO STARS!!! I am really loving this series of Cate’s , it just keeps getting better in my eyes. Boy did Cate hit it out the ball park with the last few chapters...OMG!! I was literally holding my breath and Cate..oh Cate!!! You went their girl......oh did you go there. I am soooooo drooling for the third book in the series , ‘Immortal Light’, I have a tad long wait...*sigh*. Oh, does Innocencio bring it in Darkness Falls...my, oh my , that boy has fallen into some darkness. Reyn is just gorgeous and we still aren’t getting a great deal of Reyn, but, I understand why. The bit we get is hot ,hot, hot. He is trying to move forward with Nastasya there is this chemistry between them that keeps getting botched. Nastasya can’t seem to stop her mouth running around Reyn. She just isn’t ready to let the Butcher of Winter be just Reyn of the 21st century. I keep wanting more of the new Reyn....the one Amy manages to make laugh. He carries a great deal of guilt, he is trying to survive immortality. I do enjoy Nastasya’s dialogue, when she is talking to herself or to the reader, it feels like you are part of the story. She has this down to earth way of talking about the crap she has got herself into. There is still a lot of personal growth Nastasya needs to go through before she can wake up to what is right in front of her and see the light through her darkness, her past. She needs to stop blaming herself and Reyn and move on to a healthier existence. Living in the past is not healthy, it’s debilitating. Things seem to be going wrong at River’s Edge, with every 10 steps Nastasya takes forward, she slips back 7. Sometimes it’s just easier to run.... River is still a most awesome, calming influence, selfless to the core. You learn a lot more about her darkness and what she has dug herself out of to get to where she is now. I love the memories that come through in this book. They give the characters their depth with the pain they have been through and the darkness they have lead themselves. If they can become the people that surround Nastasya now, there is hope. She isn’t the worst River has tried to help. Compared to some, Nastasya’s 459yrs of life really wasn’t that terrible. Everybody that is at River’s Edge is there because coping with their life in the 21st century was just too much. Something had to give. There is a bit of a mystery, a puzzle piece with a new character, very intriguing where this will go. I love the magick that is woven throughout the storyline . Nastasya has learnt a great deal about herself, but so have others and others want what she has......POWER!! Cate Tiernan has written something very special with this series, the reader really ‘feels’ the emotions of being immortal, I found I am no longer naive to the ‘fluff’ of being immortal, there are consequences. This whole being immortal isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. It’s damn hard! It’s all about making the right choices. There is wrong and there is right. There is light and there is dark...which one would you choose?
