Kelly Bowen. THE PARIS APARTMENT. Forever, 2021.
University Book Club selection for January. I ordered it in and read it through quickly, making notes this time to make answering questions easier. Two time frames, and multiple POVs, clearly delineated in chapter titles. The present tense is opening up an apartment that had be uninhabited since 1942, with paintings hidden. The war story, about resistance fighters in Paris and England. The modern story is light romance. The war story is much more interesting and I was emotionally caught up in the story of women leading secret lives right under the noses of the occupiers.
