A little over 10 years ago, Janine Marsh and her husband gave up their careers in London to chase the good life in the countryside of northern France. Having overcome the obstacles of starting to renovate her dream home - an ancient, dilapidated barn - and fitting in with the peculiarities of the locals, Janine is now the go-to expat in the area for those seeking to get to grips with a very different way of life.

In this book, Janine regales us with the delights and dramas of a year attempting to live the rural idyll. Each month brings to light a new aspect of life in the French countryside: snow in January, resulting in a broken arm, which in turn leads to an etiquette lesson at the local hospital; wild winds in February; cuckoos in March; and giant hailstones in July that destroy cars and houses and bring the villagers closer together.

Told with warmth and humor, My Good Year in France showcases a uniquely French way of life: where two eternally ambitious expats drag a neglected farmhouse to life, and deal with the accompanying disasters, learn to grow vegetables, discover how to cook, and stumble across the hidden gems of this very special part of the world.

sadly a boring-voiced narrator for such a lovely story of a year in France. mispronounced French

I really wanted to like this book more, but that was the issue. I kept wanting more, and was just left...wanting. I'm listening to her previous book, My Good Life in France, and I now realize that I should have listened to the books in reverse order. There is so much more detail in the first book that it's now filling in the gaps of this book. However, this shouldn't need to be the case. Each book should be able to stand on its own, and My Four Seasons in France is lacking. The slimmest part of the book is the final season. It feels like Ms. Marsh ran out of steam.

The narrator reads in a stilted, British news reader fashion, and tries too hard at French language pronunciation. This book lacks the feeling and inflection that My Good Life in France has. It's a shame that the books have different narrators.

I really enjoyed this trip through France, through Janine’s pen. I have heard only negative things about visiting France but I really hope our next trip to Europe will include the rural country side. I too am a chicken and cat lover.

Can’t wait to take a trip

I wish they would keep the same narrator for all the books in the same story. The first narrator was great this one not so much. So many words not pronounced properly. Very looong dragging voice as well as choppy and no feeling to the narrative. Great story though I’m a big fan of Janine Marsh

Good book bad narrator

If you’re looking for an escape from an online, overstimulated world, this book is it!

Simple things being joy

I thoroughly enjoyed the first book, but the narrator on this one... snore. The inflections in her voice made it seem as though each sentence is the last. It is just not a good match for this narrator. I'd like to continue on to the next book, but we shall see.

Loved and... couldn't

I LOVE Janine Marsh. Her writing is so sweet and engaging and I look forward to her emails every week. I so want to like this book, but the narration is SO AWFUL! Please, Janine, keep writing! And please, Janine, FIND ANOTHER NARRATOR! I feel disloyal not rating this audiobook higher, but I cannot. The reader’s voice sounds so affected, pretentious, and totally repetitive that I can barely listen for 30 minutes at a time before i blurt out unattractive commentary which I’m glad no one overhears. Hope I can finish listening, but I’m not optimistic. Bummed.

Ruined by the narration

Makes you wanting to hear more.

I absolutely loved this book; Janine and Marc are living out my dream. I will be visiting Calais this June due to this book!!!

Hilarious and heartwarming!!!

I could not finish this due to poor narration / performance. After 5 or 10 minutes of listening, I would start to lose the thread of the story because of my frustration with the performance and monotone delivery.

Great story. Not great narrator.
