** I received a free ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. **

Well...I finished that in one sitting over about a 3-4 hour span. It was a very cute, fun story about an 18-year-old American girl trying to discover the Paris that her parents experienced on their honeymoon 25 years prior. There are some unexpected issues with her strict itinerary that she has to cope with. It was a fun read, but then again I’m a sucker for anything involving European travel!

2025-ös évem első könyve, könnyed romantikus, élvezet volt olvasni. Imádom amikor egy sztori annyira megfog, hogy addig nem bírom letenni a könyvet amíg nem olvasom ki teljesen🥹

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I'm a sucker for books set in Paris. COMPLETE SUCKER.

This was a very sweet, light read. Serena is a very organized and inflexible character and Jean-Luc is French and a bit of a slacker when it comes to school work. I liked reading about them going to different places in Paris because Paris!

Whirlwind romances can be hit or miss for me and if I don't feel a connection between the characters the book just won't work for me. I felt like it was plausible that these two people who are different could develop a romance in just one day so in this case the sort of insta romance did work for me.

Being a romance, a teenage one at that, things went wrong and hurtful words were said. It all gets resolved in a satisfactory way. This is not an epic romance but if you're looking to get caught up in a budding romance in the lovely streets and sights of Paris this is a good read. :)

I received Kiss me in Paris by Catherine Rider in exchange for an honest review via Netgalley and you are about to get hit with an amazingly honest review.
Well it was a different kind of read for me, it was sort of strange, but a good strange.

I give Kiss Me in Paris 3.5 stars out of 5 in my review book.

Okay, so I know I said that it's a good kind of strange and it is, but there were still some aspects of it that I didn't like. And that is the reason why I gave it a 3.5, but we'll get to that, first the things that I enjoyed!

It's freaking set in Paris one of the cities I'm dying to visit, so even though I know it's fiction I still love the way everything is described and just how Jean-Luc and Serena fall in love without even noticing. I mean Serena was so focused into getting this trip done in one day without any distractions, but as we read in the synopsis those plans don't work out at all.

Jean-Luc shows Serena the Paris his knows and in a way she shows him what he's been missing out on even though he lives in one of the best cities in the world and that is why I liked this story.

Both of them complement each other in levels they don't understand and that is how the best love stories are born.

Even though the story develops in just one day, that one day is enough for both Serena and Jean-Luc to see that what their lives had been missing was each other.

Kiss Me in Paris is a story about love, self-discovery and just an amazing story altogether.

What I didn't like as much of this story and the reason it got 3.5 stars is mostly because at the beginning Serena and Jean-Luc just don't seem to work out and I wasn't too fond of  the whole one day to fall in love idea.

But as you can read in this review my views change and I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Nejlepší romantická kniha, kterou jsem v poslední době přečetla!!! Bylo to vtipné, milé, roztomilé… přesně takové, jak jsem si to představovala, když jsem ji vytáhla z poličky
