Praise forFrench Women Don't Get Fat: "French Women for All Seasonsis like drinking a glass of good Champagne: light and bubbly, a brief and mildly invigorating tonic for the mind and soul . . . with some very good recipes." Alex Kuczynski,New York Times Book Review "You've heard it before. . . . But somehow, when the advice comes from Mireille Guiliano, you actually listen. A perfect, slim (and slimming) read for dieters and bon vivants alike." Marie Claire "She spurs readers to give up the guilt and dieting extremes, to eat smarter and more joyfully. . . . Her writing, like her three-meals-a-day diet, is all part of her joie de vivre." Women's Wear Daily "The past few years have been dominated by 'scientific' diets . . . I welcome this break from the usual kind of quick-fix diet book . . . Will this book transform one's eating habits? Its good sense is unanswerable and, personally, I love the bit about not going to the gym." Lynne Truss, bestselling author ofEats, Shoots & Leaves "Mireille Guiliano's book is slender, elegant, well-spoken, sensible, and unembarrassed by the frank embrace of stratagems just like the French women whom she holds up to the reader to admire and, if we can, to emulate." Adam Gopnik, author ofParis to the Moon "French Women Don't Get Fatis not only charming and witty, but useful. It made me want to run out and buy a pound of leeks and a bottle of Champagne!" Sharon Boorstin, author ofCooking for LoveandLet Us Eat Cake "Through stories and recipes, Mireille Guiliano shares her tricks, just like a good girlfriend should. And since it reads like one big juicy secret, you're inclined to listen." The Globe and Mail "A charming, humorous look at the healthy food habits that French women have had for years."
