Fab Read: Entre Nous, A Woman's Guide to Finding Her Inner French Girl

April 20, 2009

OK, I think I have finally found the book of my dreams: Entre Nouse: A Woman's Guide to Finding Her Inner French Girl ($12) by Debra Ollivier. It's a must-have for any non-French woman (present) who seeks that je ne sais quois that French women possess (present). The author herself is American but is married to a Frenchman, and insists that you too can attain the glamor and mysteriousness of the French with the help of her insider tips and must-dos. But ladies, if you really want to appear French, you must lose those baggy sweats. Sorry, no one said it's easy being French!

Wow! Talk about lack of confidence...I mean is this for real? Are we all grouped by nationalities here?? Lame.

well after living in france for almost 13years before coming to the U.S, i definitely don't see the big deal with french women either....but maybe because i see myself sometimes as one of them,but i'll check the book for fun even though i'm already fluent in french.

What's the big deal of French Women? I didn't like the idea.

I bought this book for my former roommate a couple years ago right before she moved to France. I thought of it as a joke gift, but after skimming through it with her, I think there's much in here that ought to be taken seriously. EVERY SINGLE GIRL at our university (except us) seemed to own nothing but pajamas and workout clothes, as though they need to be ready in an instant for a nap or a jog.
