What a sweet and charming story! The characters are fun, quirky and believable and our protagonist/heroine - Edith - is incredibly disarming and endearing :)
I love these types of tales...seeking purpose, gaining a much-needed found family, and also finding love and friendship in unlikely settings and circumstances at that juncture of chance and fate.
The bakery backdrop and sprinkle of magical realism to elevate one's spirits is also very satisfying - and readers must find a warm pastry (or two) along the way to curb those patisserie cravings! (*Mmmm...croissant crumbs in the pages...?)
It's always enjoyable reading about characters' growth (Mme. Moreau, Hugo, Manu...) and commitment to pursuing their dreams while remaining true to their authentic selves
Really enjoyed this book… liked the characters, loved the bakery… I want spend a week in this town and visit this bakery every day
I loved the ending. The book coming together and the sweet life lessons along the way. I truly enjoyed this one. It was sweet.
This was an enjoyable light read. Having a degree in French and having studied there, I appreciated the setting and the characters. She did a great job with bringing it all to life. The story was sweet! I enjoyed the mystery of the bakery, though I was disappointed that it was more brief and less exciting than I had hoped. I’m not sure I would really recommend it as there are better books out there.
