The Paris Notebook

I have read a number of WWII historical fiction novels and I haven't read anything like this before! An emotional and page turning read. For historical fiction lovers this one is for you!

I enjoyed Tessa Harris' book The Light We Left Behind so I was optimistic about The Paris Notebook as well — especially with such a vibrant cover! While I can't say it surpassed The Light We Left Behind for me, it was still quite an interesting read.    When Katja takes a job at a clinic. Doctor Viktor assigns her the task of typing up secret medical records belonging to Adolf Hitler. She is persuaded by the doctor to take the manuscript to Paris with him. They do so at great risk, having to evade the Nazi spies.    I didn't click with the characters as much as I would have liked to. The plot was interesting and unique, however, I didn't feel myself hanging onto every word. Still, it was an enjoyable read. I always enjoy finding WWII fiction that can stand out against the typical formulas.    A huge thanks to Harper360 for sending me a free (US) ARC of the book!
