The room on Rue Amelie. Changing what I said about the first chapter. Does not give every’ thing away. A good book

Highly Recommended. The Room on Rue Amelie is an amazing story that takes place during WWII in Paris, France. Ruby, an American woman, was ecstatic when her dream to go to Paris came true. A whirlwind romance with Marcel led to a quick marriage and an apartment in Paris. Although Europe was on the verge of war, Ruby didn’t want to return to America. She had made her new life with her French husband and wanted to stay by his side. Ruby’s blissful honeymoon, however, wouldn’t last long. The man she had loved and thought she knew, changed drastically, seemingly overnight. Instead of being loving and attentive, Marcel became secretive and intense. He was often out late at night and whenever Ruby questioned him as to where he had been or with whom, she was met with an abrupt, harsh attitude and an evasive answer. While in Paris, Ruby befriended a neighbor, Charlotte, a young Jewish girl, and her parents. They became Ruby’s lifeline especially when she went into labor early, and her husband was nowhere to be found. Ruby became very protective of her Jewish neighbors, and when she saw the Germans coming, Ruby ran to their apartment to warn them. Charlotte’s life changed forever after her parents were taken by the Germans. Ruby dedicated herself to caring for Charlotte, and to assisting British RAF pilots, to escape German-occupied France. Ruby never thought that she would fall in love again, but after meeting Thomas, a pilot whom she had nursed back to health and then helped to escape, she knew that just wasn’t true. The Room on Rue Amelie is a superbly written, riveting novel. If you enjoy reading WWII, historical fiction, you’ll love this book. Highly recommended. Thank you, Gallery Books and NetGalley, for my advanced review copy. I loved it!

Great book!!. I don’t leave a lot of reviews, but let me tell you- I couldn’t put this book down! I was reading it everywhere I went! By the end, I was sobbing (which is a big deal because I don’t cry at books and movies that often). Highly recommend.

Lovely story by a great story teller. Lots of history, lots of love, lots of hope. People can be horrible and people can be good. We all have to chose. This is mostly a story about people who chose to love good. And I too believe I will be with my true love for eternity.

Wonderful. This book was so real to me and I felt such conviction to each character.. I loved this book, it reminds us of a terrible time in history but one we should never forget. I hope Ruby and Thomas found each other on the other side ❤️

Loved it. Beautifully written story.

Your heart is invested immediately. Heartbreaking and gripping. I read it in 24 hours, couldn’t put it down.

Heartfelt sorry of average French citizens who risked their lives too help the war effort.. Lovely book about love and hope amidst WWII. Ruby is a character you cheer for, feel with, dream with. Heartbreaking, enlightening at the same time. So thankful to know we won the war before reading, or I would have cried all the way through. Thank you for a great read!!!!

The room on rue Amelie. My worst fear while reading this book came true. Maybe if you know, it might not spoil the whole book!

Heart wrenching and moving read. Great book that explores romance, tragedy, history and female heroism and triumph. Excellent balance of joy, sadness, hope, and darkness.

Scratching the surface. This is not on same level as some of the better WWII historical fiction such as The Nightingale, The Alice Network, All the Light We Cannot See. Sometimes these novels miss the depth and true tragedy of the experiences of victims.....and replace with a romance which seems unbelievable.
