A DVD review was done a couple of months ago. Click here.<\/a> But this review is on her audiobook.<\/p>\n

I listened to this audiobook after watching the DVD movie of the same subject. I must say Liz Gilbert is incredible in her use of metaphors in her writing – very impactful. Some Amazon reviewers complained about her whining of her divorces and circumstances. I found it very therapeutic having been through the same things before. Her voice in the audiobook is soothing and at times emotional – like someone’s telling a mesmerizing story. The words of book reveal more than the movie as you cannot “read” the emotional undertone of the actions, despite Julia Robert’s great acting.<\/p>\n

There are some understandable discrepancies\/omissions between the movies and the book. The author possessed great writing and speaking skills. I enjoyed listening to this book. <\/p>\n
