Thanks to NetGalley and Kensington for the opportunity to read A Fashionably French Murder by Colleen Cambridge. I am thoroughly enjoying this series and hope for more to come.

Review coming soon!

Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the ARC.

Opinions are mine.

This whole series is delightful, and this book is a great addition. It could be read as a standalone, but there are enough references to past events and slow unfolding of some relationships that it’s worth it to have read the previous books. Main character Tabitha continues to settle into postwar Paris after having grown up in Michigan, and yet again she finds a dead body and can’t quite leave the mystery alone. More crimes, another murder, and the ongoing and painful question of how Parisians handled the Nazi occupation drive the entertaining plot forward. Tabitha’s friendship with Julia Child continues to play a key role and provide both humor and mouthwatering food descriptions. Some potential personal developments also mean the next entry in the series will be anxiously awaited. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy. All views are entirely my own and are offered voluntarily.

I am captivated by the post WWII Paris setting of this series. Also, the characterization of Julia Child in the early stages of her cooking obsession is fascinating. When you add in a spunky protagonist , a soupçon of romance and a complex mystery it makes for a delightful read.
