The Paris Orphan

The Paris OrphanThe Paris Orphan by Natasha Lester
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have a thing for books with dual narratives that jump between time periods...it never hurts when one of those time periods is the 1940s. This is not a perfect book, but the story is very compelling. It's 3.5 star rounded up because I liked how the two narratives came together and how Lester built her story off of historical figures. This felt a bit like "Rosie the Journalist/Photographer" (rather than Rosie the Riveter) tells her story. And it made me want to go to the French countryside, which is always a good idea.

Happy reading--
