One More Croissant for the Road by Felicity Cloake
3.0
For once, I agree with the blurb on the front cover: "Joyful, life-affirming, greedy. I loved it."
I think it's super telling that I read this while we were having an unhinged spot of winter weather, complete with storms and snow gusts and yet the entire time I really did feel like I was basking in the French sun. In Cloake's honor, this morning I treated myself to a mushroom-onion-and-Swiss croissant from Otter Creek Bakery, and it was a great reminder that I really liked this book, and that pastry is worth going out of your way for.
(Minus one star for the unreal amount of alcohol Cloake and her friends consume on the trip. I don't drink, so maybe my tolerance for reading about other people's hangovers isn't something to write home about.)
