She's reading Eat, Love, Pray. Isn't thay a story singing the praises of dumping your life to screw your way across Europe?
I haven't read it, but I don't think its quite like that. I flipped that my W was reading it at one point, along with a bunch of other D is good books, and puppy dog tails corrected my impression about Eat, Love, Pray - my impression was pretty similar to yours.
About the time my W finished Eat, Love, Pray was when she began acting nicer.
