Ever wonder what it would be like to live in the French countryside? Ann Barry did just that, but unlike some memoirs in which Americans move full time to another country, Barry continued to keep a home in the US and spent numerous vacations every year in her French home. I really enjoyed her "voice" throughout this book; many times I felt like I was sitting in the passenger seat as she drove around the French countryside seeing new places and muddling amicably through the many adventures of being a foreigner to culture differences. Take note of the specific restaurants and hotels she mentions in the book because after you're done reading you'll be more than ready to plan a France vacation for yourself.
