Most of the ones that focus on Paris that I've read were YA.
It depends what you like, but I would reccomend:The Greater Journey: Americans in Paris by David McCullough, excellent.
The Greater Journey: Americans in Paris
Also, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr, wonderfully written.
All the Light We Cannot See
Thanks for the list (Paris) of books.
Half Blood Blues by Esi EdugyanI enjoyed this story, very well written and it was nominated/won several awards.
Encounters in Paris: A Collection of Short Stories by Carolyn Moncel
well-done short stories
Passing Love by Jacqueline E. Luckett
well-crafted
The Book of Lost Fragrances by M.J. Rose
Has several books set in Paris - suspense, love, and fragrance are usually part of the storylines.

Lee wrote: "Hi Linda! I've read all 3 of them..."I liked all three of those books, but, honestly, All the Light We Cannot See was better than all of them. The plot is fine, maybe even just OK, but the writing is fantastic--words strung together in ways that are imaginative and beautiful, even.
