I am enjoying travel memoirs more and more lately. I really enjoyed this one. I found the author wrote with a sensuality for life and for home that made me long to have something like that. She really made me want to move to a small cottage in France and just be.

I got sucked into this book early on and I found myself rooting for the characters, hoping she found that one guy who would treat her the way she deserved. One thing I didn't enjoy was the feeling that the book had no peek...just keep waiting for it and then it was over. Was an excellent book and will recommend it to my friends who enjoy this sort of thing.

I've read lots of books (fiction and nonfiction) about brokenhearted women who go on some great adventure to sooth their souls and find some peace from their troubles. This is yet another one of those, but that is not a bad thing. I enjoyed her voice and wanted to cheer her on in her attempt to turn from a city girl into someone who reinvates a house in the French countryside rather than roll my eyes at her constant search for someone to make her forget her ex.
