Reading Soundtrack

So, over Fall Break I finally had a chance to start a new book, "My Life in France" by Julie Child. I felt prompted to read this book after seeing the movie Julie and Julia. Which if you have seen it you absolutely must! I won't go into the details of the movie because I am not writing about the movie. I have also felt an affinity to the French culture and this book reaffirmed my desire to visit the world. Anyway in this short memoir Julie shares the adventures of Paul, her husband, and herself in the wonderful land of France. If you decide to read this book may I make some listening suggestions while reading this book.
1. Amelie, the soundtrack to the original motion picture
2.Chocolate, also the soundtrack to the movie
3.Django Reinhart (I think that's how you spell his name)
4. Anything by Ella Fitzgerald
5.Solitude Album by Billie Holiday (one of my favorites)
P.S. If you go to a bookstore to purchase this book it is found in the food commentary section close to the cookbooks! Enjoy!
