So glad to see you here on MIFG! Always happy to see new readers, especially book-loving readers. ;-)<br /><br />Your suggestion has been duly noted and added to my reading list. Merci mille! I'd love to hear your thoughts on <i>Trail of Crumbs</i> when you're done. I did like the book, although at times I was a little uncomfortable with just how brutally honest she was. (I'm not sure I could be so frank, knowing that the subject of my book is still alive and well and probably going to read it!) Still, it's a romantic story and a great read.<br /><br />Hope to "see" you around here very soon! Feel free to send me more suggestions on other books to read. I'm always on the look-out for great French- or French-related tomes.<br /><br />Salut,<br />Marjorie Dear Karen, bonjour and welcome! So glad to see you here on MIFG!

Am I ever glad I found you, IFG aka Marjorie -- Reading novels set in France is one of my favorite things to do. I stumbled upon your site while I was researching, out of curiosity L'Occitane and Olivier B. as I am in the process of reading "Trail of Crumbs" right now. Yes, she does write beautifully. I'm going to check your lists of books and movies (reviewed) regularly from now on. Here's one that's not on your list: The Feasting Season" by Nancy Coons. Read it? It's great -- and not set in Paris...<br />Karen R. Wow! Am I ever glad I found you, IFG aka Marjorie — Reading novels set in France is one of my favorite things to do.

I love love love L'Occitane products and will probably make another purchase sometime soon. They have the best-smelling stuff, without being too overwhelming as they sometimes get over at Bath & Body Works. Merci for visiting!<br/><br/><b>Betty</b>, Oh gosh, no, I haven't written a book, although I'm in the <i>middle</i> of writing one. I hope to have it finished by the end of the summer, after which I'll be going to Singapore for a research trip. The key is just getting the derriere in the chair, something I'm not always very good at, I'm afraid. But really, it's just one word at a time.<br/><br/>Do you know where you want to go with the book? Will it be fiction, nonfiction, travel, memoir? Whatever it will be, let me know as I would love to read it!<br/><br/>Salut,<br/>Marjorie Dear Jennifer, merci for your post and your link to your site!
