The Black Swan of Paris: A WWII Novel by Karen Robards

5.0

I am a huge lover of WWII novels. This one was definitely one of the best that I've read in a while. It had everything you look for in a good story really. There was the history, which I really appreciated the accuracy of, there was the romance, the mystery, the family connection, the action, everything that keeps you on the edge of your seat, craving more and more of what this story has to offer. It was incredible. I do have to admit though that there were parts that made me physically anxious (which just reflects how well she did in writing this novel to the truest and most accurate point she could having not been there herself, that this horrible time and series of events would make anyone sick to their stomachs). Anyway, LOVED this book. It's most likely going on my top 10 list!
