Almost French: Love and a New Life in Paris by Sarah Turnbull

5.0

I found this book at the perfect time - one year into my own expatriate adventure. Yes, I'm from a different country, my reasons for moving were different, I brought my partner with me, and technically the language is the same, but a lot of the feelings of struggling to fit into a new culture, and falling in love with two countries and feeling torn echo my experience so far. Reading this book felt a bit like finding a friend who gets it, who could help me put the way I'm feeling about calling two different parts of the world home into words. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has moved abroad, is living abroad, or is thinking about it.
