I hadn't expected to enjoy this book -- I thought it would be all hype and very little substance. I placed a hold on the item just to check it out. I expected pure fluff at best. And it is, but there is something quite compelling about it. Firstly, it is well structured and articulate. I do enjoy her obvious personifications of her emotions. Yes, the author is not particularly likable yet she is very human. She is such a Yankee -- you can almost hear her accent -- and although this can be off-putting, it allows me to examine my own Canadian traits.
I just finished the India section (Pray) and now she has just arrived at Bali for the Love section.
I am enjoying this work, but I have another one just waiting to be explored. I just bought Stephenie Meyers, The Host. I can't wait to sink my teeth into it (sorry, this one is about aliens, not vampires). It looks wonderful just based on the book jacket...
