5 posts | 6 read | 8 to read
A stunning debut novel of a young American woman who becomes a spy in Paris during World War II. May 1940. Fleeing a glamorous Manhattan life built on lies, Claire Harris arrives in Paris with a romantic vision of starting anew. But she didn't anticipate the sight of Nazi soldiers marching under the Arc de Triomphe. Her plans smashed by the German occupation, the once- privileged socialite's only option is to take a job in a flower shop under the tutelage of a sophisticated Parisian florist. In exchange for false identity papers, Claire agrees to aid the French Resistance. Despite the ever-present danger, she comes to love the enduring beauty of the City of Light, exploring it in the company of Thomas Grey, a mysterious Englishman working with the Resistance. Claire's bravery and intelligence make her a valuable operative, and slowly her values shift as she witnesses the courageous spirit of the Parisians. But deception and betrayal force her to flee once again-this time to fight for the man she loves and what she knows is right-praying she has the heart and determination to survive long enough to one day see Paris again.

I don‘t know why so many people panned this book on Goodreads. I thought it was very interesting with a satisfactory ending. The actions of the main character made me wonder what I would do if I was in the same situation. This was a good first book from the author. I give it a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5.

Well, my actual review of this book and not just an attempt to learn more about the ins and outs of Litsy... I wish that there was something in between so-so and pick. I would give it a pretty good. It was a bit slow, and it seemed as if she tried to catch up with everything rather quickly in the end. It is not one that I would add to my read again pile, but I'm not disappointed that I read it.

I found a book that I'm interested in reading, but it's not in the search here. Is there a way to add it??? It's The Delicate Nature of Love by Wendy Paine Miller. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!
