Reviews
"If you are in the mood for a relationship memoir that takes place in a foreign country, this is the book for you." - Books, Movies and Chinese Food, "Karen tells her experiences and story in a way in which the reader is like her best girlfriend." -- Michelle & Leslie's Book Picks, "I felt as though I walked alongside Wheeler as she explored her new run down house in the village or the countryside she so clearly describes throughout the book." - A Well Lit Corner, "I found myself completely drawn into the little world Karen has carved out for herself in France. She writes in an easy, flowing way that I found pleasant to read and once I got started reading I found I really didn't want to put the book down until I finished it." - Peeking Between the Pages, "If you enjoy fast-paced, witty banter and honest self-revelation, Tout Sweet is a must-read!" -- Between the Sheets, " Tout Sweet is c'est si bon! Add it to your summer reading if you like memoirs with a touch of foreign soil and a dash of self-discovery." - Drey's Library, "This is a perfect dreamer's book and aren't we all dreamers of some kind or another?" -- Broken Teepee, "Funny, fashionable and honest Wheeler will keep you reading page by page as she relates her relocating experiences including the renovation of her home, making new (if somewhat older) friends and the never-ending search for Mr. Right." - Stileto Storytime, "My hats off to Ms Wheeler for sharing this tale with us. The ups and the downs. The ins and the outs. I loved every freaking one of them." - Seriously Reviewed, "A feel-good story that proves there is (satisfying) life after love, that sometimes running away to reinvent oneself can actually work, and that homeownership is not just for the handy and mechanically-inclined." - Apprentice Writer, A charming chronicle of transforming her unloved and neglected maison into a real home and repairing her broken heart in the process., "The characters are distinctive and engaging, and the attention to detail captivating and entertaining. A cross between a memoir and chick-lit, fans will devour this one!" -- Minding Spot, "Karen explains the process of this life changing move with a frankness and simplicity which makes one think, "Hey! Maybe I'll follow suit!"" - Dolce Bellezza, "An enjoyable read, Tout Sweet is a life lesson on how to transform a life that doesn't satisfy into one that makes each day a new adventure." -- Booksie's Blog, "Funny, fashionable and honest Wheeler will keep you reading page by page as she relates her relocating experiences including the renovation of her home, making new (if somewhat older) friends and the never-ending search for Mr. Right." -- Stileto Storytime, "This book will appeal to anyone who has always wanted to chase a dream and anyone else interested in memoirs." - Celtic Lady's Reviews, "A very charming book truly makes you want trade in your city lifestyle for that of the countryside." - Royal Reviews, "I liked Wheeler's sharp British wit and enjoyed experiencing life in France from an Englishwoman's view." - Write Meg, "This book will appeal to anyone who has always wanted to chase a dream and anyone else interested in memoirs." -- Celtic Lady's Reviews, "Karen explains the process of this life changing move with a frankness and simplicity which makes one think, "Hey!

Fashion Editor Karen Wheeler Thought She Had It All: a glamorous job, a handsome boyfriend, a fabulous home, and an even more fabulous assortment of gorgeous shoes. But not all is as it seems, and on an impulse she decides to wave good-bye to her glamorous city lifestyle and go it alone in a run-down house in rural France. Tout Sweet is the perfect read for anyone who dreams of chucking away her BlackBerry in favor of real blackberrying and downshifting to a romantic, alluring locale where new friendships, and new loves, are just some of the treasures to be found amongst life's simple pleasures. What Readers are Saying: I loved this book. It is charming, honest, funny, inspirational, and beautifully written. Read this book and you'll be transported to a land of lavender, baguettes, and wine.

- s***u (214)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI purchased Gods of Asgard graphic novel on 9/3 and it arrived on 9/11. It was as described and as pictured, gently used and clean with no markings. Tracking the order was easy and it arrived by USPS with no damage. I am happy 😀 with my purchase, fair purchase price and that the eBay Seller included the shipping costs into the purchase price.🏆 The eBay seller packaged well. I would recommend this eBay Seller and their store.👍🏼 It was nice doing business with them. Thank you
- i***. (123)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoOverall, positive experience since seller made some effort to make things right. Seller did not pack this book well at all. Book arrived damaged due to insufficient packing (book was packed in a flimsy shipping bag). Was clearly creased on the spine despite "very good" description. Seller helped by giving me a partial refund. Still disappointed in the poor packing. Hopefully they learn to pack properly otherwise I won't be buying again from them.
