As we're rounding end of---2025 Quarter one publishing---so many great books are coming out!
First up—The Paris Express by Emma Donoghue.
Thank you to my friends at @summitbooks for sending me a copy and this ADORABLE little tote bag.
Well researched. Detailed. Captivating.
A historical fiction with mysterious undertones.
Based on the infamous 1895 disaster at the Paris Montparnasse train station.
The 1895 disaster that went down in history when it was captured in a series of surreal, extraordinary photographs, The Paris Express is a propulsive novel set on a train packed with a fascinating cast of characters who hail from as close as Brittany and as far as Russia, Ireland, Algeria, Pennsylvania, and Cambodia. Members of parliament hurry back to Paris to vote; a medical student suspects a girl may be dying; a secretary tries to convince her boss of the potential of moving pictures; two of the train’s crew build a life away from their wives; a young anarchist makes a terrifying plan, and much more.
If you’re a fan of anything Titanic, I think this would be up your alley too.
