review 1: This book is quick to read and quite enjoyable. I laughed out loud at some parts. The people Karen meets when she begins her new life are interesting characters and it's nice to read about her house renovation. However, I disliked the way the author dropped brand names into so many sentences and this prevailed all the way through the book. She would also use the same adjectives repeatedly at times. But on the whole, I liked this book.
review 2: what i thought was going to be an informational and inspiring story turned into a whine-fest by the author about the lack of a boyfriend. in this modern age, i would have found it more refreshing if the focus was on what you can do on your own, rather than be depressed because you can't find a boyfriend and/or keep one.... more hardly any descriptions about how to mingle in with the french but plenty of descriptions about every "possible" hookup. sorry, ms. wheeler. you obviously had tons of money to buy and fix up a perfect home in france, so stop complaining that a guy doesn't call you back after you sleep with him on the first date. (that can happen anywhere in the world.) no thank you. less
