Of the 16 members that attended this book club meeting, only one member didn't enjoy the novel. He felt that the author placed herself in the story needlessly. The rest of the group found it informative. It sure stirred up a lively discussion.

Our book club had mixed emotions about this read. About two thirds really liked it; a third of us, not so much. I was part of the \\\"ehh\\\" group. It did make for a spirited debate. It was odd that people who don\\\'t typically favor non-fiction seemed to be most vocal about their enjoyment, even going so far as borrowing his other two books from the library. Personally, I found it very repetitive......and I do mean very.
