Coming off the back of another mystery/thriller (Verity by Colleen Hoover), The Paris Apartment was much more satisfying. It was less gripping, but I felt I understood the characters much better, even if I didn't particularly like most of them...especially Mimi's obnoxious whining. It was also more thrilling for its realism—I could imagine this story being true, even if it isn't. The voice actors for this multi-perspective audiobook were fantastic as well!
