Book Reviews of My Life in FranceBook Review: Pure Julia Summary: 5 Stars
I first bought this book when it first came out in 2004. I really don't know why this book grabed my attention. I of course knew who Julia Child was, but thats about it. My Life in France sat on my bookshelf for almost 4 years before I opened the book. Why I waited so long I have no Idea this book was a facinating read. Any fan of bio's or cooking will enjoy this book.
Book Review: Interesting but not riveting Summary: 3 Stars
It was interesting because of the history portions about Julia Child. The portions relating to Foreign Service personnel living aboard following WWII was informative. Nothing about the book itself was written to be a novel, but rather more of an historical memoir of her life. Taken as that, it is fine. Just don't expect it to be a griping, exciting adventure.
Book Review: Getting to know Julia Child Summary: 5 Stars
After many years of watching her various cooking shows, I finally got a real insight to Julia and her private life. This book is one you can't put down and I didn't want it to end. She was such a delight. How much she loved her husband and their life in Europe, especially France! Her enthusiasm for food preparation is infectious! I heartily recommend it!
Book Review: My Life in France Summary: 5 Stars
Fast delivery, fair price, new condition. Enjoyed the movie so much, when PBS was showing her history I didn't want to move from the TV set, love her personally! Since we now have a new hugh kitchen my husband is letting me do whatever I need it!!! I ordered (3) of her books to my cookbook collection's can't wait...and find out more about her life...
Book Review: Great vocabulary lesson for my 6th Grader! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book for myself, after my 11 year old and I went to the movies. She has to read a true adventure for her sixth grade book report. She also is a very smart kid. I am having her read it aloud and we giggle over the french pronouncations,large vocabulary words and analogies. A great book flows this one is a great lesson too!
