I’m curious about The Signature of All Things, even though I have yet to read Gilbert’s Eat Pray Love (but I did see the movie!). I read some negative reviews of Eat Pray Love…and I’m going to have to bite the bullet and read the book (it’s been on my stacks for a couple of years!). To see what I think…lol
Have a great week…and here’s MY MONDAY READING POST

I have Eat Pray Love still unread on my bookshelves too. It’s right behind me in my office taunting me to read it!
