VANESSA YU'S MAGICAL PARIS TEA SHOP

In this heartwarming audiobook, narrator Nancy Wu transports listeners to the romantic city of Paris. In a quiet voice and slightly uncertain tone, Wu depicts Vanessa, an accountant burdened by her inherited talent for clairvoyance. Her sophisticated Aunt Evelyn, superbly presented in a silky timbre and measured pace, invites Vanessa to stay with her in Paris, where she will instruct her on how to control her fortune-telling ability. Listeners will believe they are in Paris as Wu vividly describes the city's fashion, art, and many delectable-sounding pastries. Romance is in the air as Vanessa becomes smitten with dreamy pastry chef Marc and Aunt Evelyn rekindles a romance with restaurateur Girard. Wu also conveys sparkling portrayals of Vanessa's other aunties, all opinionated, and her beloved uncle. M.J. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2020]
