Review # 1 was written on 2009-04-02 00:00:00 John Van Krieken I have to agree with Amplotkin about this book. I really, really wanted to love this book. It's about what I've always dreamed of - going to live in France, or Italy or best of all, England. It's one of my favorite genres and I really liked most of the characters a lot. The husband is a bit of a cipher, but everyone is likable and interesting. So why didn't I like it more? I just never got a true 'French' feel from the book. There didn't seem to be any true viewpoint. They could have been living almost anywhere. And there was WAY too much of the neighbor lady.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-12-13 00:00:00 Kevin Pruitt I enjoyed reading this book. It was well written. It was very informative without being a how-to book. Rebecca Ramsey tells her story in a very laid-back, easy style. Some of the people were very annoying and actually I wouldn't have lasted for four years if I was in that situation. My pet peeve with this book is actually a personal flaw in that I like everything in chronological order and this book was all over the place.
