Two Book Giveaways: The Little(r) Museums of Paris and Murder in Bel-Air

I am thrilled to have two book giveaways this month for two new fantastic books. 

The Little(r) Museums of Paris: An Illustrated Guide to the City's Hidden Gems by Emma Jacobs 

This adorable, delightful book is a primer about the small, particular museums of Paris ripe for discovery. I’ve personally been to many of the museums listed but I was surprised to find a few I didn’t know about. The museums in The Little(r) Museums of Paris are cleverly divided into nine categories including Marvels and Museums, History, Architecture & Design, Around the World, Time Capsules, Artist & Ateliers, Stage & Page, Science and Medicine, and ON the Outskirts. A series of charming illustrations accompany each museum. Some of the more obscure museums include Phono Museum, Magic Museum, Museum of the History of Immigration, Madame Curie Museum, Musee des Arts Forain, and Museum of Counterfeiting.

Murder in Bel-Air by Cara Black 

Let’s give a round of applause to New York Times best-selling author Cara Black for her 19^th book, Murder in Bel-Air. The prodigious author rewards us again with a tale of murder and mayhem with her favorite private detective and heroine, Amiee LeDuc. Revealing the neighborhood secrets of the 12^th arrondissment, this time it’s personal, as her mother goes missing, when she doesn’t show up to pick up her daughter at school.

August in Paris- My Marais Apartment for Rent August 16 to August 29

I am renting my Marais loft from August 16 to August 29 (Dates are flexible). Contrary to popular myth that Paris is closed in August, most shops, restaurants, and attractions are open in Paris, especially in the Marais. The weather is usually beautiful, temperatures in the high 70s to low 80s Fahrenheit during the day, dropping into the mid 60s at night. In case in gets warmer, I have an air conditioner in the bedroom and a large fan in the living area.

Minimum rental period is 7 days/one week, price 1500€ for 7 days/one week, 2900€ for 14 days/2 weeks.

Conveniently located by the Saint Paul metro, in the heart of the Marais, the apartment is a spacious one-bedroom 750 sq. ft. loft  with 12 ft. ceilings, decorated in chic Mid-Century Modern furniture and sleeps two people in a Queen size bed. Amenities include washer/dryer, 16" flat screen TV, dishwasher, internet connection/Wifi and free long distance calls to the U.S.  The apartment is located on the second floor with a large elevator

Love your blog — esp love Cara Black and have read every one of her books. Little Museums of Paris would be handy for my next trip!

[Cheryl Matzker]

Both of these books look fabulous! I've read every one of Cara Black's books. She had me hooked from the first book I read..Murder on Ile Saint Louis. The Hôtel lambert was a favoite spot of mine and she featured it in that book!

I have a trip scheduled for September with my two girlfriends and my husband. Cannot wait to show my friends the city I have referred to as my "second home"
The Little(r) Museums of Paris would be a great addition to planning for the trip.

Thanks for all of you insights on my favorite city.

[Susan Carter]

Would love to win that book before my trip in Sept to see what little museums I've missed.

[Lois Howes]

As usual, great articles, but I was especially happy to see you promoting these 2 books. I haven't ordered Cara's newest book yet, but ,of course have every other one. I also love the museums in this other book that I've been to. I now have some new ones to explore.
Have fun with my clients in the beginning of July. I hope to get back to Paris soon,but life is crazy !!
