Interesting but very snobby and written more like someone's biography than a subjective view on French Home Making. It gets 3 stars instead of 2 because I did put one piece of advice into practice. I have organized my filing cabinet at last and put them together like an Archive so thank you book for the inspiration to do that. Otherwise, I think a lot of this could have been just condensed into bullet point form and written as an article rather than an entire book. The points and ideas are stretched out in the chapters and they become a little redundant to read about.

So many interesting things I didn't knew and such a beautiful cover. The audiobook made it better since ai could listen to the French pronunciation.

Skimmed. Kind of up its own butt, but I like the bit about distinct spaces.
