The Paris Daughter: A Novel by Kristin Harmel (2023) First Ed.
Paris,
1939: Young mothers Elise and Juliette become fast friends the day they meet in
the beautiful Bois de Boulogne. Though there is a shadow of war creeping across
Europe, neither woman suspects that their lives are about to irrevocably
change.
When Elise becomes a target of the German occupation, she entrusts Juliette
with the most precious thing in her life—her young daughter, playmate to
Juliette’s own little girl. But nowhere is safe in war, not even a quiet little
bookshop like Juliette’s Librairie des Rêves, and, when a bomb falls on their
neighborhood, Juliette’s world is destroyed along with it.
When the war finally ends, Elise returns to reunite with her daughter, only to
find her friend’s bookstore reduced to rubble—and Juliette nowhere to be found.
What happened to her daughter in those last, terrible moments? Juliette has
seemingly vanished without a trace, taking all the answers with her. Elise’s
desperate search leads her to New York—and to Juliette—one final, fateful time.
Review
Gut wrenching!!!
This book wrecked me. The amount of times I
cried. The amount of times I grabbed my 19 month old little girl and just held
her because of this book! The writing made me feel like I was right in Paris.
That I was alongside them in the gallery in New York. This was absolutely
amazing. The plot, the twist, the unexpected surprises. Just overall amazing!
The
book is in a good used condition. There is gift note under the
covers.
