Books set in Paris

I just remembered "Le Divorce" - it was made into a film.

Novels based in France but not Paris would be Joanne Harris "Chocolat", "Five Quarters of an Orange" and several others.

Erm, more Paris. There is an author called Cara Blacks - haven't read any of her books, but she does murder mystery novels based in Paris and comes highly recommended;

Irene Nemerovsky wrote Suite Ffrancaise (incomplete) and a good part of that was set in Paris...

I'll give you more as they come to me...

this is a lovely book!!

Are you interested in the classics (Emile Zola 'Nana' series was set in Paris)? Not really beach reads though;

Otherwise there are heaps of non-fiction books written by expats, some of which aren't complete clichés. A year In the Merde, Paris To The Moon both spring to mind - very different books but both interetsing in their own way. "Almost French" by Sarah Turnbull is one of the better ones too.

"Petite Anglaise" by Catherine Sanderson is worth reading; it is non fiction based on her blog and life in Paris. She also wrote a novel, "French Kissing", but I haven't read it.

I'll have to think long and hard about any others. I read one a few years ago but it was such drivel I think I actually binned it before finishing it (very rare - I don't like abusing books - but I didn't want to inflict it on anyone else).
