I can push them into characters and make them something else.... Julie's decision to ...drop the curtain... came as the Julie and Julia film came out, which she said portrayed her as too sweet to some degree. She told The Mercury News that people became invested in their relationship as a result of the movie, saying: ...A lot of people saw the relationship as this paragon. ...It's not that it was a lie, but I wrote it at this period where I was very naive and I thought marriage was a pretty little box with a bow.

In her book, Julie writes: ...Eric is naturally treading very carefully in the world right about now. ...We talked a lot about me writing this book, and I would never have published it without his blessing; couldn't have, legally, even if I were so callous as to choose to. ...Eric is a naturally reserved person in the best of times. He's also an extremely courageous and generous man. ...He's not exactly tripping through the daisies this week, but he is understanding enough to know what this book means to me, and what about it is important....

Speaking about her book's popularity, Julie said in a 2009 interview with Cinema Blend: ...At the end of the project, I had managed to do something so much bigger than I thought I was capable of. ...Not just the recipes. I had turned into a writer, I had a tone. I think really what Julia Child does, it's not just about teaching us to cook. It's about teaching us to be brave, to jump into things. ...I hope that the fact that I am honest about how hard change is, that there are setbacks and there's hopelessness and there's doubt, will make it easier for people to understand that it's not just icons like Julia Child.... She continued: ...She did go through a period of doubt, and she made herself into a strong woman. ...But ordinary people, people like me\- it really is possible. It's hard, and it's scary, and you've got to make a leap. ...I hope that people will read my books and realize that anything that's worth doing is going to be tough. ...It's the bravest thing you can do, to see a life you're dissatisfied with and make a dramatic change....
