Another solid mystery by Lucy Foley!

Pros: 
- The narration is fantastic; full cast of readers, and the listener is able to distinguish between them.
- Plot twists on top of plot twists, made for several "oh snap!" moments. 

Cons:
- The pace was slow, to turbo speed towards the end. Because of that, the ending was too rushed.
- There is not enough proper justice!

When I can find a book that keeps me guessing until the very end, I cherish it. This novel exceeded my expectations with its complexity and depth. I’m a tough critic of mystery novels, and I will be the first to admit that in this genre, it is hard to impress me. 

I. Am. IMPRESSED.

The Paris Apartment by @lucyfoleyauthor was an interesting and at times confusing but overall intriguing read. 

PROS: 
💻The twist left me with lots of theories, but I still didn’t see the exacts of that ending. 
📝I stayed on the edge of my seat trying to play detective 
💻That apartment building was described perfectly. I want to live there. 
📝The Concierge 
💻The fact I didn’t like anyone and wasn’t rooting for anyone, BUT I still just HAD to know. 

CONS: 
📝The jump from POV to POV every chapter and the movement from memory to present was just a lot. It added more to the confusion than helping lead me to the truth. 
💻There are some extremely heavy topics. Smex trafficking and forced smex work is something that will never get easier for me to read. 
📝Not enough cat content 

🐱🐱🐱🐱 out of five bloody kitten paws for the way that ending had my jaw on the floor
