Well i had that with Petite Anglaise.
I started the book whilst on the train to London back when i went to the La Roch-Posay event in May. I thought it would be a good distraction from my phone as my battery is playing up and wont hold the charge if i use it too much.
So getting into the book. I'm not going to lie, the cover is what drew me in. Its so cute!
What i didn't realise was the book is about a lady called Catherine or 'Petite Anglaise' who is a blogger. She wrote a book about her blog and her life.
The story is about how she loved France, and always yearned to live there. Once she was old enough she moved to France. The story talks about her romances, work life and motherhood. It talks about her relationship with Mr Frog. Now reading the book makes you realise how 'real life' is... not how they normally portray it in movies or books.
She talks about how Mr Frog works all the hours under the sun, they juggle being parents with working, how they never see each other and how the relationship basically breaks down, and she meets someone else..
I'll leave it there as i don't want to ruin it for you. But i urge you to get a copy and read it. Its a very easy read and i got quite addicted towards the end.
I even had a look online for her Blog, sadly she doesn't write it anymore, but you can still read back through the archives.. woo!
I think I read this book before the thought of starting my own blog had even occurred to me. I remember enjoying it, though.
