The Red Notebook by Antoine Laurain A Favorite Book

 


I read this book a few years ago and it stands out as one of my favorites. 

Reviews on Amazon:

Described as 'Parisian perfection' by HRH The Duchess of Cornwall, The Red Notebook is a charming, quirky love story from one of the UK's favourite French authors.

'The very quintessence of French romance' The Times

And the storyline from Amazon:

Bookseller Laurent Letellier comes across an abandoned handbag on a Parisian street, and feels impelled to return it to its owner. The bag contains no money, phone or contact information. But a small red notebook with handwritten thoughts and jottings reveals a person that Laurent would very much like to meet. Without even a name to go on, and only a few of her possessions to help him, how is he to find one woman in a city of millions?

I love quirky books, small books, memoirs on life - but not Hollywood tell alls. This book charmed me and ended too soon. As we all know, it's sad when a good book ends. I've reread it several times and now our book club will read it. This makes me smile.
