Query: I really wanted to like this book

My creative writing teacher showed us a clip of the author speaking. I fell in love with her immediately, and I really wanted to read this book. However, the book was very disappointing. Pretty much the whole thing is about her whining about how miserable her life is and being completely selfish with her friends, monopolizing their time to talk about her problems. She didn't seem to gain a single scrap of wisdom from her entire year of travel, which was the whole point. There were a few good lines and ideas, but most of those came from other people, not from the author. I hoped for a lot more out of this book.
