Book Reviews for Real People. Looking for something to read? Want some unsolicited advice? Thursday, March 25, 2010. Posted by Maria Duncan. Anyone remember a little book called Eat, Pray, Love. Elizabeth Gilbert sure does. Eat, Pray, Love. Gilbert explains what became her intended audience for Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage. I was so worried that the rest of the book was going to be like this (I have a hard time staying interested in that kind of writing), that Committed. I'm glad I stay...

Book Reviews for Real People. Looking for something to read? Want some unsolicited advice? Sunday, January 17, 2010. In Her Shoes (Jennifer Weiner). Posted by Maria Duncan. I'm apparently on a quest to read every book Jennifer Weiner has written, with In Her Shoes. Being the latest one. (Also, apparently this book was made into a movie starring Cameron Diaz, although I have not seen it.) My review of this book will be short and direct. Page 1 through 215: too dramatic! 1 Good in Bed. 3 In Her Shoes.
