The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley
Did not finish book. Stopped at 58%.

This book just does not do it for me. I think in part because this book doesn't have the setting or ambience that I've loved in her previous books. There's nothing about this book that motivates me to keep on reading. Not the mystery, the characters, setting, writing or the french thing. God im tired of this obsession we as a species have with france.
