J'adore

review 1: I had such high hopes for this novel. A Parisian woman moves to NYC! Written by a Canadian! Sadly, it just... fell completely flat. The writing is technically sufficient, but the characters are so flimsy and hollow. The protagonist seems to feel superior to all the shallow and judgmental people around her, but she is actually exactly the same as them. I gave up halfway through, but skipping to the end revealed that nothing would change. No character growth (because the character is perfect, of course!). Just nastiness all around.
review 2: This was about a 2.5 star book but it was sooooo much better than the book I read right before this, I gave it an upgrade. Catherine, a French lawyer, moves to NY and has to deal with extra work, a client that comes on to he... morer and another client who is very handsome. She also is having problems with coworkers. None of the problems are very interesting or compelling, but it was an easy read. Can't recommend. less
