I like the book because of the way Harry Potter going on the adventure to kill Lord Voldemort (I think), and also because of the adventure, mystery, and fantasy.

Absolutely the best Jane Austen book with an exceptional, intelligent, admirable heroine and an honorable, educated hero. The writing is outstanding, I read it every year and learn more every time.

Very informative and gives insight to knowing someone.

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

Good

Interesting modernized new twist on such a classic thing like cooking. Brewer dives deep into the science behind the WHY of cooking.

Twisty thriller

In The Power of Regret, Daniel H. Pink challenges the idea that we should live with "no regrets." Instead, he argues that regret is not only normal but essential to living a meaningful, thoughtful life. Drawing on research from psychology, neuroscience, and a global survey of regrets, Pink shows that regret can clarify what we value, sharpen our decision-making, and help us grow. Rather than avoiding regret, we should listen to it, learn from it, and use it as a tool for improvement. He identifies four core types of regret that people around the world commonly experience: 1. Foundation Regrets – “If only I had been more responsible…” 2. Boldness Regrets – “If only I had taken the chance…” 3. Moral Regrets – “If only I had done the right thing…” 4. Connection Regrets – “If only I had reached out…” By recognizing these patterns, we can make better choices going forward and deepen our relationships, careers, and personal growth. Ultimately, The Power of Regret flips the script: regret isn’t a weakness—it’s a powerful human emotion that, when handled well, helps us live more intentionally and become better versions of ourselves.

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I've read one of Ms. Cambridge's other books in her other series, The Phyllida Bright mystery series and very much enjoyed it. Although this is the 3rd book in her An American in Paris Mystery and I took all three out from my local library, I started with this one first. I love a ballgown and fashion and knew I'd love this book. I knew of the inclusion of Julia Child as a character and it was so much fun to imagine her cooking and being friends with Tabitha. I watched Julia Child when I was younger and loved to think of her cooking and trying to teach Tabitha how to make crepes, etc. Tabitha lives in Paris with her Grand-pere and his partner, her Oncle Rafe. The "attic" setting where she lives in their home sounds like the perfect little room in Paris. Especially with that private bath. Although I haven't read the other two books yet, it did come out in this book that Tabitha has discovered other bodies - numerous other bodies. She's helped the local inspector with solving the crimes before and helps him solve these. I really enjoyed his constant smirks and sighs at her insistence in helping him. All of the fashions, the mannequins, the Dior history of Chrisitan and his sister, were all written so well. I learned a lot of about Paris history and fashion. I'm eager to start the first book, Mastering the Art of French Murder, next. (from my Goodreads review)

Fantastic book! The best I've read all year. Reid does such a good job making you care about the characters.
