THE PARIS MYSTERY BY KIRSTY MANNING

Rating: 3 out of 5.

This was a messy one for me. Left me relieved it was over, if I’m honest. 
     If you’ve read any of my reviews, you’ll know I’m a big dialogue girl. I love books based and pulled along with pure dialogue. So, it should come as no surprise that one of the biggest sticking points on this one is the dialogue. It was horrendous. Choppy. Unrealistic. Cringe-worthy.

The plot felt messy, if not slightly boring. Another reviewer said it best when she called the MC a schemer. I see that. 
     Although I appreciate any book set in Paris. A MC that’s a reporter. A female breaking boundaries……. this one couldn’t cut it for me. 
    I could picture this as a cheesy, dramatic UK TV show? Anyone else?
    I’m rating this a 2.5 stars, rounded up to 3 due to the setting and other aspects of the story that pulled on my heart strings.
