Title: It lost me after Chapter 2.
Review: I'm not even halfway through the book, and I've been mourning the loss of the strong, interesting and rather daunting 14-year-old protagonist. The early friendship between Sarah and Eugenie evoked wonderful portent of things to come; then -- bam! -- we're fast-forwarded into the present day, and Sarah has become shallow, dull and predictable. I'm not sure I care what happens to her, but because I love Paris, I'll read on. I'm curious to see if the City of Lights can brighten Sarah's lack of luster.
