Eat, Pray, Love – Get Reading Girlies!!

by MARIA on July 26, 2010

So I originally posted last week about wanting to finally read Eat, Pray, Love and thought it would be fun to put it out there and see if anyone else wanted to join me and blog along. I was thrilled with the response, and I think it’s great that 29 of you commented, saying that you are in.

So ladies, let’s start reading!! We’re starting with Italy, and we’ve got one week to read the first section, which either means you need to read it quickly, or slow it down, depending on how you read. The plan is to blog about what we thought about each section the following Monday, so we’ll be blogging about Italy on Monday, August 2nd! I will add a linky to the bottom of my post, and hope that you link up so that we can read each other’s thoughts about the book.

Of course, it’s never too late to join us! Just leave a comment below and let me know! I also would love to know what you think about the book being made into a movie and Julia Roberts starring – I suppose it’s only a matter of time before every good and/or popular book is made into a movie starring Julia Roberts.

I suppose having a hashtag to tweet about is very fashionable right now, so how about #BoredMommyBookGirlies or #EatPrayLoveDammit. Yes it’s true – I can’t think of a hashtag that works, while not offending others. Feel free to help me out with a good suggestion below!!

Let’s read people!!

LEGGERE SIGNORES!!

Glad I’m not the only one who just started reading this. Love it so far. Truly inspiring. Although I can’t see Julia Roberts as her.

I’m the next person on hold at the library! What can I say, I’m on a budget.

I’m in! I’ll pick up the book on Thursday and hopefully I can catch up if I lock myself in the bathroom so I don’t have any distractions. :)

I’m making my way through Italy right now. I don’t know if anyone is a BJs wholesale club member, but I got my copy for $9.69 (USD) where the cover price was $16.00. They are really good like that.

I want to join!! I want to join!!

I finished this lovely book like 6 months ago after I read a NYT article about her writing a second, follow-up book. That book is out and I’ve started reading a sample and I LOVE this woman and her style of writing.

I’ll gladly take the journey again if you gals will let me =)

Of course, just write a post about ITALY tomorrow and link it up to me in the morning! The more the merrier!
