Eat Pray Love book club discussion #1

What preconceived notions do you have of the book as a first time reader? What have you heard about it? What do you anticipate going into it? Why do you want to read it?When this book first came out I was going to check it out but after I read the synopsis of it it didn't really trip my trigger so I passed on it for the time being. But then I heard it was going to be made into a movie, starring Julia Roberts and I became interested again and THEN I found The Book Vixen's post about reading this book in a book club format. So I signed up. I downloaded it onto my Nook and I've been chomping at the bit for what feels like an eternity to get started reading.What I've heard about the book is what I've read from other sources....It's gotten mixed reviews on Goodreads and I haven't really read anything about on the blogs that I follow until Book Vixen's post. Knowing that this book has gotten mixed reviews is actually kind of exciting for me....The best part is I get to formulate my own opinion of the book.I don't really know what to expect going into this book. I just hope that I enjoy it. Why do I want to read it? Well, I've been seeing trailers of the movie for a little bit now and they really have me interested in not only reading the book but also seeing the movie. I can hardly wait to see it!
