this book was really excellent showed a side of julia childs you wouldnt know from her oldddddddd cooking show days. you actually felt and could imagine the places that she traveled to and her experiences in different parts of france. also on the collaboration of her cookbooks when she started out. I really enjoyed it and hated for it to end. which is why i am not reselling my own. as i will re read it someday!

What a delightful read - couldn't put it down - and I am not even that interested in cooking!

I very much enjoyed Julia's descriptions of beautiful France, wonderful food, painstaking work, and life with her devoted husband, Paul. She did seem a bit full of herself at times and forgot that not everyone has the privilege of life abroad. I also found myself frustrated with her obstinacy toward her father; after all, she was a grown woman and he, an old man set in his ways. Why engage him in political discussions at all? Altogether, though, an enjoyable look at Julia's life and 1950's France.
A wonderful read January 8, 2008

This is a wonderful book. Julia Child is one of the most positive, passionate and witty personalities of our time. I sure miss her. Especially around the holidays when I make her cranberry relish. This book is written in a way that makes her seem very present. Her story is very humorous and inspiring.
