First book I read with Dez Limerick as the protagonist. Will be reading the others

Good

Adorable love story!’ so fun to read

First time reading this author's work and although it was a pleasurable story, it was more like a light summer read to me. The premise is that Veronica found out that she was adopted through a DNA test kit given to her by her sister for Christmas. She suspected as such since her high school years but never spoke of it until now. Her adopted family thought it would be good to visit the countries that she was related to and her father paid for a trip arranged by her sister to Ireland, France Italy and Denmark. There are elements of fantasy throughout which you had to go with, but it was a very predictable story . I will rate it 3 stars, but I think the author could have made the book more interesting by giving more background on the characters and on Veronica's relationship with Jonathan previous to her trip.

Amazing it embraces you into their own world 10/10 recommend!!!!!! :)

This is a pretty good book about a girl named Mariana whose dad is running for president. Mariana has been supporting her dad completely even when she doesn’t like it that she is involved in his campaign. But when the activism club at school grows and starts activism that seems pointed against her father and an incident that breaches her privacy occurs, Mariana starts to learn that maybe her father isn’t the honest man she thought he was. Mariana wants to stand up to him. But how can she?

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. This is the first book in the series An American in Paris. I read the third book the other day and am starting the second book tomorrow. I really loved the third book and loved this one as well. I especially liked learning more about Tabitha's arrival in Paris, her reactions to Paris, her first meeting with Julia, etc. The descriptions of Paris were wonderful - I can easily imagine the cream colored buildings with black railings. Tabitha learns a woman has been found dead in the cellar of Julia's building and proceeds to enter the cellar in hopes of helping to discover what happened. Since her father is a cop and she's always read mystery books, she thinks she may be helpful. The local inspector heartily disagrees with her. I loved their interactions and how clearly Ms. Cambridge describes his facial expressions while dealing with Tabitha. I also loved her Grand-pere and Oncle Rafe as well as the pets. Her lack of cooking skills made me laugh and reading a character that is supposed to be Julia Child was fun as well. I'm excited to read the second book. (from my Goodreads review)

Amazing book, truly thought provoking

Another spectacular summer read from Carley Fortune! I loved Alice and Charlie’s dynamic relationship. This wasn’t just a cute love story, there was life and issues that tried to stand in their way and made me love them each even more!

Not a typical Taylor Jenkins Reid romance but a great read! I wasn’t expecting the historical romance/space aspects and I wasn’t sure I loved it at first, but the more the book went on, the more I opened up to it. I really liked the characters and felt so connected to them while reading. The past/present switch in narration was a bit confusing at first, but when the stories came together in the present, it was great!
