A book which raises all sorts of issues about individual gurus who claim to show young women the way to the truth. ( )

Because I loved the film. Not sure how this will be given some of the reviews. It will be nice to read this, and then watch the film again, which I haven't seen since conversion. I wonder if it will come off different. ( )

Hmm. A book written by sisters who were writing the movie of it at the same time. They should have stuck to the screenplay. It tells the story of Ruth, who went to India, was captured by a cult and now needs to be deprogrammed by PJ, the arrogant American.

The story has pedestrian main characters and poorly fleshed out secondary characters, with all of them horribly unlikable. It has a strange style of swapping between the main characters each chapter, although the story seems to call for the swapping to happen earlier.

Lots of sex. And dressing in drag. All of it having no real bearing on the story. And a really annoying habit of writing laughter like this: "He laughed. 'Heh, heh, heh." ( )
