Dear Librarians,

With so many wonderful books published every week, how on earth do you choose a book that you know beforehand will be a sure fire good read, something you'll enjoy and feel was time well spent? As an avid reader myself, I know the problem only too well so I'd like to tell you why I want to recommend LES PARISIENNES: a book that tells true stories about ordinary women facing extreme life and death circumstances in Nazi-occupied Paris during WWII; a book that will challenge you to think, "what would I have done?" A book for which you won't need any prior historical knowledge to enjoy and yet will emerge from wiser.

How do I know this? I had a letter from a bookseller this week telling me, "More than any other book released this year, yours has provoked conversation and debate on our shop floor."

I really hope you'll let me know what you think of some of the more outrageous or sympathetic characters.  I love hearing the reactions of my readers. Thank you for your support of my books.

Love,
Anne Sebba
