paddlefoot55 's review for:

The Paris Seamstress by Natasha Lester
4.0

ARC received via Netgalley for an honest review

The Paris Seamstress is two lady's stories, told decades apart, yet their stories are interwoven.

This is only my second Natasha Lester read, however what I have learned so far is that she is kick-a$$ at writing strong, independent women who take no crap from anybody.

Both Estella and Fabienne are beautiful, ambitious, strong women. Both are fighting for the career they want, both falling in love, both fighting against the wars of their era.

I was completely swept away with Estella's war time story line.

In fact, I feel that this book would make a fine movie.

There are so many characters who are all involved with each other one way or another, with darker undertones to some of the characters. Secrets, lies, evil villains.The Paris Seamstress has a bit of it all, however none of it felt over the top.

I am not a fashiony kind of girl, but I loved learning more of the war time fashions, especially in the USA.

I an enamoured with Ms Lester's writing, and I can't wait to see what she brings us next.
