Linda’s Book Obsession Reviews “A Bakery In Paris” by Aimie K. Runyan, William Morrow, August 1, 2023. On Tour with Suzy Approved Book Tours

“A Bakery in Paris,” by Aimie K. Runyan, is an intriguing and captivating Historical Fiction novel that I devoured. The timelines are set in 1870, when the Prussians tried to starve the people in Paris, and in 1946: post-World War Two. The protagonists are two women from the same family in different timelines. I love how the author vividly describes the setting, the lifestyle, and the colorful and dramatic characters. The backdrop is a small bakery that helps to feed the people, and also l provides a wonderful setting for family, friends, love, and hope.

Both women had to make difficult and important decisions in their time. The circumstances make life difficult, and they had to struggle for survival. Both had to be armed with courage. It is amazing how the ingredients are used so lovingly in the bakery. These women are leaders during historical times with time, patience, skill, love, and hope. I highly recommend this memorable novel.
