Couldn’t remember reading this at first so needed reminders. But loved main story-of Nell in Paris alone—breaking out of her rut. I like how she writes.
Not one of my favorites. Love her books but the short story form just wasn't enough time for me to become attached to main characters and some of the stories were needing cleaner wrapping up.
Honeymoon in Paris is good, but everything else is such an underwhelming cliché
I loved the title story and would have been fine if that was the end of the book. The other stories were depressing and maudlin.
"Paris for One and Other Stories" by Jojo Moyes contains one novella and a few shorter stories. I'm actually not one for short stories, I prefer reading a full-length novel, but as I love Jojo Moyes, I decided to give it a go nonetheless. The novella "Paris for One" was unfortunately only average in my opinion, just like some of the other stories. I really, really loved "Honeymoon in Paris" and a few others were not bad as well. Overall it was okay, and it probably would have been a nice and short read, but since I was very busy the last weeks and didn't really find the time, it was dragging on a bit.

I really enjoyed this book of short stories. They were very charming & witty. Each one left me with a smile on my face!
