Books in the The Good Life France series

This is the true story of her rollercoaster ride from her early struggles and homesickness through personal tragedy, to her attempts to become self-sufficient, with her sharp observations on the very different way of life in France.

Janine Marsh recounts tales from a year in the rural idyll of France, revealing how an expat from London adapts to the changing seasons of the French countryside, all while renovating a dilapidated barn and trying to fit in with the locals.

Following on from her hugely popular books, My Good Life in France and My Good Year in France, ex-pat Janine Marsh shares more heart-warming and entertaining stories of her new life in rural France.
