Letters from Paris is a beautiful engaging story traveling from Chicago to Louisiana to France. Claire Broussard has worked hard to have a career and successful life in Chicago but when she hears news of her grandmother's illness, Claire realizes all she has worked for means nothing to her. She immediately leaves her life in Chicago and heads to Plaquemires Parish to care for her ailing grandmother. Claire isn't in Louisiana long before she explores her grandmother's attic and finds the sculpture she remembers so vividly from her youth. Her great grandfather sent it home from Paris after World War II. Her grandmother urges Claire to travel to Paris to solve the mystery behind the sculpture. Claire begins a journey to Paris which may lead her to solve the mystery of the sculpture and change Claire's life in the process.
I enjoyed this novel very much. The descriptions of both the French countryside and the streets of Paris are so well written that you really place yourself there. I found the details of sculpture and mask making very interesting. Claire was such a relatable character. I definitely hoped she would not only solve the mystery behind the mask but find happiness as well.
