Paris in Love is a look into Eloisa James's life in Paris with her family. The
book opens with Eloisa talking about her struggle with cancer.
Reading the memories made me want to return to Paris and visit my favorite places as well as
the places that are new to me from the memoir.
The book is a collection of Ms. James’ Facebook posts, tweets and
essays. It is divided into easy to read
chunks so that you can pick it up and put it down. Her descriptions are vivid enough that I
could picture it as I was reading (I’ve been there four times).
There are laugh out loud moments as she
describes her children’s experiences with French school and adapting to
Parisian culture. I enjoyed her insight
into the way French women dress and view themselves.
I can identify with so much of this book.
I am a cancer survivor and a Francophile!! My own trip to Paris this summer was
inspired by my own cancer diagnosis in 2008.
I love Paris!!
There is no other city like it. Reading
the memories made me want to return to Paris
and visit my favorite places as well as the places that are new to me from the
memoir. When I return to Paris I will take along
Paris in Love
so I can visit some the places that James visited. I should have read it before
my own trip to Paris
in June.
