When I finished reading the first book in this series, my main thought was what happens next? The author did a masterful job of piquing my curiosity and need to find out. From Tours to Paris is the delightful sequel and answer to my question.As she did in her first book, Linda Kovic-Skow brought me right into her world of romance and adventure and kept me turning the pages through her descriptive and engaging writing. I am with her as a twenty-something experiencing the agony and ecstacy of young love in the City of Love. Her scenic details are exquisite and brought me into the scenes. Her rollercoaster of emotions had me recalling what it was like being twenty-something again. It was an honest and believable portrayal in that she weaves in the realities of dealing with her parents, honoring their wishes as well as the many friendships she forges with her peers while over there. The fact that she made this all work –taking off for France when she didn’t know the language, then extending her stay-is a testament to her resilience, courage and creative imagination. It makes for a very engaging and satisfying read and one I highly recommend

From Tours to Paris French Illusions Book 2 (Audible Audio Edition) Linda KovicSkow Lucy Floyd LLC Dreamland Press Books Reviews
After reading Linda's first book, I had to read the second one to learn how it all ended. My heart just ached for this young woman who was learning some hard lessons about life and relationships while abroad in France. A captivating read. Linda is an excellent writer, and I highly recommend both books.
This book was a great true story! I enjoyed reading about her adventures in France and her struggles to learn French. It follows her 1st book where it left off. Glad I got to read her story!
Young woman goes to France and doesn't seem to learn a damn thing.
Found the first book in this series through a group called we love memoirs. Had to have the second as it was a delightful story. This was also delightful. Though Linda is naive & love struck I blame that on her youthfulness. I admire her since of adventure and it made for a interesting story I am glad I read.
I give this second memoir 10 stars! It was an excellent follow up to the first book and I hated to have it end. I really enjoyed reading about her experiences. Since I have a good friend who lived in Paris for 2 years, I found this memoir to be completely believable.
On another note, I feel Linda Kovic-Skow is an excellent writer and I hope to read more of her work. Her story line, sentence structure and syntax
are truly professional. Her experiences in France would make a great movie!
I just finished French Illusions, both books, and enjoyed them very much. Besides telling us her story, she helps feel it, too. The idea is, as a young woman Linda wanted to learn French, and settled on the "sink or swim" method to do it. She moved to France as an au pair, and set off to learn the language, as well as the job. Her story is liberally sprinkled with French phases, which she gives you the gist of, as she did at the time. I found this intriguing as it let met share to a large extent what she must have been feeling. What fun for a 70-year old man to experience what a 20-something girl felt, I loved it.
French Illusions Book 2 follows Linda Kovic-Skow's first memoir divulging Linda's life at the age of 21 when she lived in France, but book 2 is quite different to book one - (as are a lot of true-life stories).
This book is about life outside the au pair job - grappling with real-world issues of love and maturing. It's a fast fun read with many leaps in tension and I wondered what the heck would happen to Linda at every turn. Even though she's out of the French au pair context, she's still isolated and has to look to her own resources to manage.
This is 1980 she's phoning 'collect' from a post office to communicate with home and has no internet, email, mobile phone, craigslist groups for instant friends, the lines of communication are vastly different and the language barriers are high. I liked how the author takes us into her experiences from the get-go and conveys how much of a learning curve she was on without ever throwing herself a pity party when things go nothing like she imagines. Her tenacity and spunk shine through.
