A very interesting story of the Murano, Italy, glass industry. The chapters move through centuries of time as the characters age very little, making it a bit confusing to follow the story line.

A perfect desert book and a really heartfelt story!!! ;)

This book is kind of ridiculous and dumb, but that’s exactly why I like it. It was a little simple, but nice.

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)

Translated from Italian, this gives the impression (possibly mistaken) that all disagreements are settled by repeatedly hitting and punching those who disagree. The brilliant friend drops out of school, marries wealth, becomes unrecognizable, but is perhaps brilliant.

This is a heart-warming story about a struggling high school teacher who meets two children in need of a caring parent.

This book was awesome. I won’t write this much this time because I this is the third time that I am writing. It deleted twice, twice!!! But this book is great i only don’t like how the dog doesn’t not understand that teh first owner is dead. I listened to this half of the way to Maine.

This book was so moving. I really liked how this was from Julian’s grandmothers perspective. And how he makes it clear that he’s sorry about how he acted about auggie. This book is so awesome!

Meh….overrated and predictable

Stone and Dino live charmed lives with an adventure thrown in. We should all be so lucky
