3.5 stars maybe, I really was just reading this to get some Spanish and it looked easy. Yeah it was good enough, definitely in Spanish (I actually liked the mix of Spanish French and English and how they all worked together since it’s a translated book, ex in French they say parlez-vous anglais? And then respond si hablo ingles because Spanish is English) nothing too special though. I read Paris Para Uno then a few of the other short stories but they were not worth it

My first experience with short stories in the romance genre. And this is not my go to genre. But I enjoyed some of the stories.

lovely love story in paris, very romantic (after all, it's paris), romanticised in some ways - people being nice and friendly (i mean, most people are nice but it's rare that tourists are satisfied with their experience in paris - check the paris syndrome). fabien's nice guy, maybe i wanted more character development for him, as it felt a bit lacking towards the end; a feel of "he's a nice guy, he has big dreams, cool for him?"
i really liked the experience of nell travelling abroad for the first time, it's so adorable to see her discovering paris; however, i wished there was more things written about culture shock (because i bet there are some, even though france and england are close) and fabien and nell discovering each other not only personally but also through the culture... anyway, it was a good, heart-warming read and i would recommend it

Unlike some readers, I really enjoyed the short stories in this book (preferred them even to Paris for One). They explored more realistic areas of life in relationships, a nice departure from the typical “leave town and fall in love” storyline. Because of this, I’d recommend the last 40% of the book. Paris for One can be taken or left.

Half of this book was focused on a sweet little romantic story of a woman taking the chance on adventure one weekend in Paris. The second half of the book was a collection of short stories that were all just as entertaining.
