Received in the Just Not Into It Bookbox

I'm not sure why I kept this book, but I am going to pass it along for someone else to find.

Released into the My Armchair Travels to France Bookbox.

Please enjoy!

I've read this book before, but I believe it's on my friend's wishlist.

And my journal on my first copy:
Adam caught the Francophile bug at a young age, and his job has given him the opportunity to live a few years in Paris.

I usually like expat memories, to see a culture through a different set of eyes, as long as it's not egoistic and filled with complains about finding plumbers, inefficient workers and all that. This one is quite enjoyable, though not exactly memorable (at least not for me).

I am so glad to finally be travelling and meeting up with other BCers. This book will be passed on to a fellow BookCrosser who is a Francophile. I hope you'll enjoy it!!

I didn't finish the book as I never felt being part of it. It's like an outsider reading another outsider writing about the anecdotes of what happened to him personally 20 years ago. I may be able to relate a bit more if I were an American, or I were a historian with excellent memory.

Having said that, I did learn about how Les Deux Magots and Cafe de Flore had evolved.

I hope whoever picked up this book from the free library would take the time to check out Bookcrossing
