If you like to read the old fashioned way holding the real book between your hands, or like to read with your Kindle, or maybe you go back and forth, there is still nothing quite like a good book...

Twenty Seven Extraordinary Women - Which One are You?


Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage
In Elizabeth's Gilbert note to the reader she mentions twenty seven women who are part of her intimate circle.  These are the women for whom her book was written.  Every woman can find herself at least once within this list.  
If you have ever experienced heartbreaking loss, you are included right away. 

Because Elizabeth did not try to write this book for millions of readers I think we will be in for a real treat as we turn the pages of this book and discover how important it is for all of us to have this kind of inner circle of support and friendship.

I have certainly experienced heartbreaking loss.  This first was probably a broken heart as a teenager - which seems small now, but at the time was a big deal!  I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a granddaughter - each with its own joys and struggles finding that I gain insight from different people for each step along the path.

Where do you find yourself in this list of twenty seven women?
