Heidi (MinxyD14)'s Reviews > Lost and Found in Paris

This could have been a great read based on the plot and the portrayal of strong female characters. Joan has her own moments of strength and clarity early on, especially regarding her husband's betrayal and his subsequent actions. Then as the story unfolds, these kick-ass women surround her, yet, she is flakey about what she wants in life. It feels like she does not fit the story, and I could not understand or connect with her character.

Ultimately, the epilogue was what tanked the whole experience for me, and I really wish I could go back and "unread" it. (view spoiler)[ A HEA is not essential for me to "love" a book. Honestly, I would have been pleased with an open ending at the close of Chapter 21. It was a surprise that the author took the direction she did after investing so much time and emotion in building up a particular relationship and making it critical to the story. (hide spoiler)] Maybe it is just too cerebral for me.
