I tried to locate a soft copy. Apparently there are two books with this name, but the novel by Elizabeth Gilbert is not available online :bummer:

Boo!. I think I'll buy the kindle then. Hardcover is way to clunky to carry around.

Oifu says her first book was very popular - Eat pray love. Abt 8 yrs ago. She hasn't read it but knew the plot. Looks like mainly for naris.

Re: April GSBC Contemporary The Signature of All Things

I have a confession to make; I’m annoyed that this book is based in a historical time.
I read so much slower because in my head I keep giving it a old british accent.

That wasn't her first book. It's the book that made her more of a household name because of the film. It also gave her the "chick lit" reputation. Before that she was often characterized as a very "masculine" writer.
