First comes "Eat, Pray, Love," then comes marriage for best-selling author Elizabeth Gilbert, whose latest travel memoir describes her fitful and resistant journey back into matrimony.
"Eat, Pray, Love" is a tough act to follow. The deeply personal memoir (and soon to be movie starring Julia Roberts and James Franco) touched millions of readers who followed Gilbert as she overcame a painful divorce on a yearlong trip to Italy, India and Indonesia.
This long-awaited sequel is a good effort but comes up a bit short. While most people can relate to a story of recovering from heartache, it's hard to have much empathy for a woman who finds herself forced to marry her Brazilian lover, who is, by all accounts, the man of her dreams.
