Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
Seventeen-year-old Imogene and her best pal Evie have secured internships in…Paris! But, quelle horror, when there is a models' strike shortly after their arrival, Imogene must scramble to find another way to justify her stay in THE only city for fashion. When the girls accidentally stumble upon an unknown designer's highly original yet undiscovered work, they pass it off as being someone they have discovered, which is not true (at least at the time). Through a number of twists and turns—some fairly predictable, some completely outlandish—the plot is tied up in a neat and tidy bow at the conclusion. This book provides numerous negative messages to readers: If you are wealthy then nothing else really matters; seventeen year olds are perfectly fine living unsupervised in major European capitals; and stealing is okay and actually applauded, to name but a few. The illustrator has done wonders with seemingly random yet appropriately placed drawings. This book is the second offering from this author about Imogene. Not a necessary purchase.
School Library Journal

Gr 6-10
As if this genre weren't vapid enough already (think Tyne O'Connell's "Calypso Chonicles" [Bloomsbury] meets Lauren Mechling's "Social Climber" books [Houghton]), here is another superrich, overprivileged, flighty white American teen spending her summer without supervision, in Europe. Here, it's Paris, and the charmless "OMG here's what I'm going to wear" protagonist in question is Imogene, a 17-year-old fashion forecaster who stumbles upon a mysterious designer and turns Couture Week on end. It's a simplistic plot made convoluted with impulsive forays into the utterly ridiculous (e.g., being saved from jewel thieves by falling in with a Russian magician's entourage on a passenger train). Even as a madcap mystery of sorts, the whirlwind pace gets considerably gummed up with a glut of fashion references and bad "teen-speak." Occasional full-color illustrations, à la designers' sketches-giving the impression of the characters as nine-year-olds playing dress-up-do give the eye a rest from all the exclamation points. Gaping plot holes, the superficiality of the characters, and utterly banal dialogue render this title difficult to recommend.

    Imogene is back, after her introduction in A GIRL LIKE MOI.

    She is fabulous, as usual, and spending her summer in Paris with her best friend, Evie, and is accompanied by her cute little dog, Toy.

    Don't think her summer is all fun and games -- she has her work cut out for her, by running Hautelaw Paris for spring. During her stay in Paris, her job is in danger when the models for fashion week go on strike and fashion week is canceled.

    But then Imogene and Evie discover ''Monsieur X," an unknown fashion designer, get stuck in the middle of a counterfeit bag deal, and life gets even more hectic.

    Read how Imogene gets tangled up in her own web of lies. Read how she saves fashion week, dresses to kill, and manages boys and lipgloss. Also, after she and Paolo are over, maybe there will even be a new summer love? Will Imogene remain composed, or absolutely lose it?

    Find out in PROJECT PARIS.

    Good Fashion Series!!!

    This book and the one before it were very good! After i read the first one i was really excited to get the next one. This one was really good and got me interested in the mystery of who the fashion designer would be! I was dissapointed in the end though, it wasn't that good. The end was actually really stupid! It had no point to it! But the rest of the book was very intregging and it kept me interested. Over all i would recommended this book to girls interested in fashion! :'

    I 'skull and crossbones' this book

    This book might have been good, if I were 12 years old instead of 19. I love French and fashion, but Imogene was way too shallow, plus I really can't stand people who say 'OMG!' and 'I Heart/I skull and crossbones' what normal person says that? There was even a small mistake with the French when she says 'I j'adore'...you don't need the I thats what the j is! It was just way too annoying and immature. I actually returned this book to the store.
