French Lessons by Ellen Sussman
1.0
French Lessons centers around three Americans and their french tutors focusing on a single day with supposed life changing events. The book is broken up into 5 parts the first and last for the tutors and the body for the pupils.
I can say one positive thing for French Lessons, it was a fast read, but that's about all. The back cover proclaimed it as a "page-turner" I do agree with that but not for the same reason, which to be rid of the horrid story! I knew it was a romance but was expecting a little more substance or feel for Paris as the tutors are semi tour guides. Nope, most of the book was on the pairs having some kind of affair or lusting/flirting with one another. I might be acting a little over-dramatic here but I would liken it to a soft "Scruples". To give an example, several men in the book have yet to be circumcised, this might be too much information but there we are. If I had to pick a favorite part it would be fin.
