The Book Lover's Guide to Paris is the perfect guidebook for literary buffs looking to explore all Paris has to offer in that regard. Well laid out with plenty of photographs and maps and choked full of information on such greats as Victor Hugo, Honoré de Balzac, Marcel Proust, and many more. Plus, there is an entire chapter dedicated to bookshops and biblioteques (libraries). As well as a short chapter on places to stay. This will definitely be coming with me when I visit Paris!
