A review by gabydarling
The Paris Widow by Kimberly Belle

adventurous mysterious tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

5.0

I could not put this book down. And oh boy was this a stressful ride. Stella’s stress and anxiety in searching for her husband, and learning his fate, was fully transferred into me. 

The story itself isn’t particularly new or unique, but I don’t even care because it kept me HOOKED. There’s also some grammar errors and clunky sentences. 

It’s a thrill. It’s a mystery. It was nice to read a book that wasn’t a spooky thriller. And while it’s fiction, there’s reality weaved into the pages, like with Kat and the ring being based on a real person. 

Highly recommend to crime thriller lovers. 

Thank you so much to netgalley, Kimberly Belle, and Harlequin publishing for the ARC! I can’t wait for this to come out and for the world to devour it!
