I really enjoyed reading this book. After watching "Julie and Julia" I wanted to know more about Julia Child. This was different from a typical biography/autobiography, probably because she doesn't try to stick to a strict time-line (not that the story is out of order) but tells stories about different episodes in her life. I enjoy history, France, and food, so this book hit all those notes for me. Others might not be as interested. After reading this I want to get a copy of her cook books and try my hand at French cooking...though I actually don't care for French cooking that much. But Julia made me want to try.
