PARIS, MY SWEET A Year in the City of Light (And Dark Chocolate)

Cassandra Campbell narrates as Amy Thomas, a New York City freelance writer with a sweet tooth who lands a job in Paris, a city she fell in love with years earlier during a summer apartment exchange. Campbell’s animated reading embodies Amy’s exuberant personality, along with her moments of jealousy over a friend’s love life and moments of anxiety—which are always quickly remedied by a delectable French dessert. Though at times Campbell’s American accent slips through, her French pronunciation is accurate. Like the chocolates and desserts she describes, Campbell’s voice is rich and enticing. She easily retains the listener’s engagement with this light and sugary story about sweet times in Paris. M.F. © AudioFile 2012, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2012]
