Inspiration

I'm in need of some help!

I went to buy the new Danielle Steel book Big Girl this weekend but my attention was stolen by another book, Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage by Elizabeth Gilbert. Having never read Eat, Love, Pray, I was persuaded to put down my much anticipated Danielle Steel and buy Committed, and now I'm REALLY regretting it!!!

I'm only about 1/4 way through and I don't want to keep reading, but my pride won't let me put it down.

I was expecting a novel, and instead it seems to be a history lesson so far... can anyone tell me if it gets better or not??
