The acclaimed author of Me Before You is back again with another book. This one is very different than Me Before You, but I still enjoyed it. In this book, we meet Nell and get to adventure with her to Paris. I found this book to be a quick, witty book with a lot of heart. I enjoyed it.

Paris for one is my very first novel of Jojo Moyes. I have been waiting for this book for 2 weeks and when it arrived, I finished it in 2 hours.
I was too eager to read this one because of the plot it is written on. And, believe me I wasn't let down by the content at all. I enjoyed every page of it.
The book is a story about a girl who used to be diffident about her decisions and had not laid herself back when her Boyfriend didn't stood her up for the trip she had been organizing for so long.
And, when she finds herself all alone in the city of love. She decides to live every moment of it. She decides to love life back and that's when her life loves her back too by making her to meet this man Fabien who quietly changed her perspective of seeing the things. Who made her feel beautiful, and confident about herself.
I love the book. I hope to read all her writings after that. :)

I won this book through a Goodreads giveaway in exchange for a fair review.
I enjoyed reading this book and especially liked Paris for One. I liked the other short stories, but felt that most were too short and I wanted more from them.

mmm ok so i technically didnt finish the WHOLE book but i finished 86% which is enough.
I REALLY liked the cutesy, lovey, movie-like vibes of Paris for One. And then came the other stories...They were OK. Soem of them were interesting, others I jsut didn't care to read. I wanted a book full of Paris stories but got one really cute story, a failed honeymoon, some kind of robbery, and other stories that I'm sorry but I did not want to read.
I will definitely read another Jojo Moyes book but not one with short stories.
