by Elizabeth Gilbert
This book is simply... delicious.
I am learning so much! The author weaves her story in such a way that I become mesmerized. The history of Italy -- I haven't made it to India or Indonesia yet -- is intertwined within her own personal story in such a way that I don't even realize how much I'm learning until I've already learned it. I now know the basis of the Rosary and the origins of the Italian language.
I'm also enjoying reading about her own personal discovery of God. I listen to her journey into spirituality and my faith screams out the answer to what she sees as a mystery. This ever-present love, this certainty that comes to her in her lowest moments, this reassuring voice from within is my God, my Lord, and my Love! Faith makes me certain.
