Eat, pray, love.
Having not heard of this book in the slightest before it's movie adaptation came out, apparently I live under a rock. On an isolated island lost in the ocean. Or so all the articles I've skimmed tell me. Not, my dear, lovely packed bookcases, you don't seem to count. In their defense, no I don't live under a rock, but yes I do live in a gate community of fantasy fiction. Introspective, discovering-oneself novels don't hold my attention. It still amuses me when I see comments like that. It reminds me of the very typical "What, you don't have a Facebook account?!?! How come??" Before, it was really because I didn't care. Now, I have to admit that that kind of reaction accounts for a good chunk of it. Also, being the only person amongst my friends not to have Facebook, they all tell themselves that they have to warn me by phone/e-mail/etc when something comes up, so I get a good many head-ups.
Yes, I'm stalling. Genderverse has just thrown an enormous BLOCK OF DOOM at me and I am not happy.
