Libby and the Parisian Puzzle
Many of you will know that Jo Clarke (aka BookLoverJo) and I have been friends since I first started writing about books on the internet over 6 years ago. I have been in awe of her passion for books but even more so her dedication to making her dream of being a published author a reality. And this week her dream came true.
I have had the privilege of reading her first novel (in a series which has now been commissioned for book two) in it’s various early drafts and now I hold the finished copy in my hands. It really feels like magic! Book magic!
Let’s take a moment to unpick that sentence: her dream came true. That does not happen every day.
And what an absolutely brilliant sleuthing adventure Libby and the Parisian Puzzle by Jo Clarke is! I adore the characters of Libby and Connie and how their friendship develops as they uncover a mystery in the streets of Paris. The setting was well-evoked and reading this had me craving macarons, hot chocolates and the Paris skyline (as you can see I treated myself to macarons in celebration!).
Warning: must be consumed alongside hot chocolate and macarons. It’s an actual necessity.
Happy sleuthing, reading and indulging in Parisian treats!
