I saw the Julie/Julia movie, and was tempted to read Julia's letters. I was very interested for the first third of the book, but then didn't feel like I was getting much out of the subsequent letters. I stopped reading half-way through the book, as I didn't feel like I was going to get to some kind of conclusion at the end. The pre-face lead me to believe that once Julia was back in America, they communicated rarely through letters.
