As a Francophile, I enjoyed this romp around Paris with Amy. After fleeing Phoenix, Arizona after the death of her best friend, Amy leaves behind her troubled marriage to William. With some unusual characters, including Margaret, who treats Amy like her daughter, and Mani and Herve, we get to experience Amy’s personal growth. I liked it.

Paris Ever After is a sequel to a book I have not read...that being said, I didn't feel like I had missed anything by just jumping into the second book without reading the first. It takes us on Amy's adventures in Paris and it is a quick, fun read. I really enjoyed the way the story unfolded and hope there's a sequel to this in the works.

Such a cute book! The second in a series, Paris Ever After tells the story of a young pregnant girl who is estranged from her husband and living in Paris. She then works to figure out the next steps of her life with a crazy cast of characters. While I haven't read the first book in the series, The Paris Effect, I never felt lost or confused. The author did a wonderful job of summing things up at the beginning of the novel.

Overall, Paris Ever After is a super fun book and a great way to escape for a few hours.

I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion,

**I was able to read a copy of this book via NetGalley**

**3.5 Stars**

Paris Ever After is the follow-up to The Paris Effect. Going into this novel, I was not aware that it was a sequel, but I was able to read it and follow the characters easily enough. I do think it would be a good idea to read the first book prior to this as it would provide insight into the characters, but you won't be confused if you don't.

Though it is not a perfect novel, I did enjoy this book. I liked most of the characters and I think Amy is a well-rounded character. She is not perfect , but no one is and she is likable. Generally, I liked the story though I do think the pacing slowed down in the middle of the story. As previously mentioned, I haven't read the first book so I found the characterization of Will to be lacking, however that should be rectified once I read the first book. The descriptions of Paris and the food are wonderful.

Overall, I liked this book. There were some flaws, but I was interested in Amy's story and it was a very quick read. I would check out another book from this author and if you like this genre, it would be a good read.

Have to admit I wasn't completely loving this one. While it has some strong parts....it's missing something. Decent read.

I love love love this book! I enjoyed "The Paris Effect" very much, and was surprised to find this - a sequel! Yay! I hope Ms. Burns will bring us even more stories featuring Amy, Margaret, Manu and the rest of the characters she's introduced us to. Viva la France!
