Author: Evie Woods
Genre: Contemporary, fantasy, historical fiction, mystery
What Do I Think About The Book?
This is an interesting book I read. About Edie getting a job at the bakery in France and she discovers mysteries and secrets the bakery has. I feel emotional with happy, sad, and angry moments throughout the story. Good characters. A lot of French words and sentences so if you are learning French, this book would be great. Has dual POVs. What I find interesting that it has 1st and 3rd point of views. Overall, I enjoy The Mysterious Bakery on Rue de Paris! Do you like a bakery setting, France, and mysteries, then check out this book! One more thing, there are some romantic moments.
I have received a free copy from NetGalley. All opinions are my own. Thank you!

Synopsis:
Nestled among the cobblestone streets of Compiègne, there existed a bakery unlike any other.
Rumours were whispered through the town that its pastries offered a taste of magic, chasing away the darkest of sorrows. Just one bite of a croissant might bring luck, unlock a precious memory or reveal hidden longings.
But dark clouds were looming on the horizon...
For Edie Lane, a recipe for disaster doesn't require that many ingredients. Take an unhealthy amount of wishful thinking and a sprinkle of desperation and that's how Edie left everything behind in Ireland for her dream job at a bakery in Paris. Except the bakery isn't in Paris - and neither is Edie.
This might not be where Edie intended to be but she soon realizes it's exactly where she needs to be...
