Petite Anglaise – Catherine Sanderson

Review by Alison

This is the blog that started it all.

Sanderson is a young British woman who has lived all of her working years in France. She has a young daughter (Tadpole) and a long time boyfriend (Mr Frog). One boring work office day she decides to give writing a blog a go and this book is written around what happened when she started. Her procrastination, frustration and everyday life are all explored with no holding back unlike the blog.

Interesting read, I finished it within a couple of days as it flowed quite nicely and I wanted to know what happened next. I would describe it as, “a light and fast read.”
The author can be witty and she is at her best when she writes about everyday experiences in Paris, but too often her obsession with self and her tendency to take herself way too seriously get in the way.
