Paris in Love
Paris in Love: A Memoir
by Eloisa James
I love Paris (3/3/2012)
I love Paris in Love. It is so beautifully written. The technique of using vignettes gathered from facebook and Twitter works brilliantly. I thought I'd have to read it again just to glean names of museums, bistros, and shopping experiences, but surprise! They are listed in …more

Sister (5/17/2011)

Raising Wrecker
Raising Wrecker: A Novel
