As an international flight attendant, I found this book very accurate. It was fascinating to read how the flight attendant career has changed. I enjoyed this book!


Corduroy Mansions (Corduroy Mansions, Bk 1)
Review Date: 9/20/2010


This book is by the same author that writes #1 Ladies Detective Agency novels. This one is not a mystery, but rather a study of one week in the lives of flatmates in a London building. A quick, easy read. I enjoyed easy pace. I would recommend this book.

This is a wonderful, quick read. The author refers back to Chocolat constantly. I didn't remember a lot about the prior book, so I was often confused. I enjoyed this book anyway.

If you read the first book, you will love this one. I would recommend reading book 1 before this one. Not really a stand alone read.

Helpful Score: 2


I just finished Julie and Julia and found it fabulous! So I wanted to read more. I love France as well, so I figured this would be the book for me. It was a dry read and not very funny. I would be helpful to know some French all the recipes Julia refers to are in French. I much prefered Julie and Julia, but found this an interesting read.

I don't usually read this type of book, but I completely enjoyed this wonderful book. A very easy read and it totally kept my attention until the end. Total chick lit.
