This was a super cute read. I loved reading through Jamie’s journey of traveling to France and coming to accept that that her mother’s injury was not her own doing. I loved watching Jamie’s growth and coming to realize that the world does not always revolve around her- a nice realization brought on by the loyal, sweet Valentin. I just wish that there was more time spent on the description of the actual landmarks and not just finding the letters. That would have brought it up to a 4 star for me.

This book hooked me from the very 1st page to the last. I recommend you save a few bucks so you get this book . It's ridiculously good and a page turner. It's set in Providence and with every page it seems like you are in France. The author is a genius who clearly induces our imagination with the descriptive details in the text. Did I mention Jamie is so lovable (and she can also make you crazy) and Valentin (the handsome neighbor ) is the neighbor I need.

I just loved this book so much. It is so cute. Such a great summer YA contemporary story. The author does a great job describing everything, from the food to the scenery, you will feel transported and never want to leave.

This was a fun novel set in one of my favorite part of the world! Jamie travels to Provence after a rather upsetting event in her life to help her French grandmother. What starts out as a rather boring summer for Jamie soon turns interesting as she finds an old letter from her father.

The story itself had a great premise and plot line. I do recommend the story go through another round of editing, as there were several awkward turns of phrases and obvious grammatical errors. There were also several cliched descriptions, and I think this author has the talent to fix these small hiccups. An enjoyable spring read to enjoy while stuck in self-isolation! Thank you to Netgalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book was entirely a pleasure to read. Anyone who knows me, knows that I will pick up literally any book that has an inkling of being about, or involving France or French culture. I know Aix-en-Provence is in France because I greatly regret not having visited last time I was there but alas I digress. This story is both a treasure hunt and a girl discovering who she really is meant to be.

This story follows Jamie, who goes to France to live with her grandmother after an accident with her mother. Jamie discovers letters from her dad to her mom that lead her on a treasure hunt all around the south of France. Of course, she finds Valentin, a local boy, to come along with her and inevitably develop a deeper connection with.

I appreciated the French used in this book because I could actually understand it! Those years of French actually paid off... This book is just so fun and fluffy and I absolutely loved it. I would highly recommend this title to anyone who wants to escape because the scenery and setting are described so vividly it was like I was there. This is the perfect summer road trip book that I recommend you pick up ASAP!
