It's 3 a.m. and Elizabeth Gilbert is sobbing on the bathroom floor. She's in her thirties, she has a husband, a house, they're trying for a baby – and she doesn't want any of it.
A bitter divorce and a turbulent love affair later, she emerges battered and bewildered and realises it is time to pursue her own journey in search of three things she has been missing: pleasure, devotion and balance. So she travels to Rome, where she learns Italian from handsome, brown-eyed identical twins and gains twenty-five pounds, an ashram in India, where she finds that enlightenment entails getting up in the middle of the night to scrub the temple floor, and Bali where a toothless medicine man of indeterminate age offers her a new path to peace: simply sit still and smile. And slowly happiness begins to creep up on her.

Reluctantly enjoyed!

I can’t help but dislike the author/narrator also due to being so sanctimonious, all while saying disgustingly offensive words like ‘spaz’.
Therefore I’d say try the film (which I NEVER say when it comes to books) as Julia Roberts makes the author likeable and it’s skips a lot of the unnecessary holier-than-thou parts in the ‘Pray’ section.
Try the film

But I wonder if I am the only one who has this audiobook as a copy of old CDs? Not only is it irritating to hear 'end of disk 1' etc from the automated voice, but there are scratches on the CDs and the recording skips and crackles and sections are repeated. This is more than one occurrence, and it's particularly bad in the middle of the poem... I had expected more from Audible.
Good Story - Bad Recording

Obviously there’s a lot more information in the book, Liz, (as she calls herself,) shares her pain and joy but not in a way that brings tears, it’s a life lived, or part of a life, I found it thought provoking and enjoyed listening to her journey.
This was just what I needed at this time
