The Paris Affair (by Melanie Hudson)

I was not as pleased with this book as much as I had hoped. There were such long and rambling sentences that I found it difficult to get through the pages at times; not to mention the chapters. I really enjoy reading historical fiction ... especially if it is set during WWII. And this one had a little different aspect in that it showed that not all Germans and German soldiers aligned themselves with Hitler and his regime. While I was expecting more of the book to be focused on Sophie due to the cover, it really spent more time on Sebastian. While the book did improve by the a little more than halfway through, trudging through the first part had me forcing myself to read each page. However, there are plenty of very positive reviews and if you are a fan of historical fiction, then I encourage you to give it a try. Definitely don’t give up on it until you’ve read more than half of the book.
