A review by professormarple
The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley

slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? No

2.5

I might have enjoyed the twist at the end but by that point I was not really invested in any of the characters and mainly just wanted to finish to see what happened.

I could see this being enjoyed more by people who can visualize while reading and are more immersed in a book. I still don’t think it would be 5 stars for me because I think I prefer when a book doesn’t seem to be holding information back just for the sake of a plot twist later. If too much is directly hinted at ahead of time it frustrates me. Could work for a different type of reader where it might build suspense. 

Overall, I think I’m not the target audience.
