audreylee's review against another edition
4.0
The narrator uses humor to offset the grinding, unrelenting uncertainty of living as a resident immigrant in France. The characters were "step off the page" real. There isn't much of a plot or character arc. It was engaging for a novel where not a lot happens.
amanda1793's review against another edition

2.5 stars.
I didn't mind this story... And I feel like the lack of interest and strong writing has to do with the fact that I read the translated version (and I find that can be a problem for some translated books) in terms of very cut storylines and lack of full understanding...
I had a hard time finding this story that interesting and at times found the main character to become annoying.
I would say read this if you are looking for something quick and light... Otherwise I'd skip it.
