Perestroika in Paris by Jane Smiley
4.0

A friend of mine referred to this book as Charlotte's Web for grown ups (minus the tragedy) and that's a truly accurate description. These talking animals are charming and delightful and the relationships they build with each other in order to navigate living in Paris are heartwarming. I was cheering for them from the beginning to the end!
