What a marvel!

It would be very interesting for people to know how much her husband had to do with her success! I am a Julia-ite and this is a fine fine read....

Love this book!

Funny, charming, a love story not only between Julia and Paul, but a love affair with France.

Dear Julia...

I love this woman. She is charming and funny and vastly practical. In sort, I wish she had been my friend.
In fact, this book is much like getting wonderful long letters from a good friend. I kept wanting to write her back to say what a treat it was to hear from her...but alas, she is gone. She lives on in these words, in this book. Read it. You will fall in love with her as I did.
