Reading this book was like being in Paris. The description of food, wine, couture, art, and BOOKSHOPS was just luxurious. Plus throw in a Mysterious Artist, missing paintings, evil fiancées, lost fathers, and a band of bookish misfits— the perfect recipe for a can’t-put-it down read! Ruth Reich hasn’t just written a book, she’s created an EXPERIENCE. The kitchen scenes were my favs. Loved it!
