True love comes with a wave of uncertainty and tolerance; it looks beyond sexual gratification.

Rue Toulouse is a book by Grahl Debby. It was intentionally divided into forty-six chapters and written in three hundred and twenty pages. It is a fictional book primarily centered on love, acceptance, friendships, and family. It has a fascinating storyline.

Debby introduced her main character as Caterine Doucette, a lady who lost her parents at an early age and grew up under the care and supervision of her Grandma, Miss Dauphine. She was exposed to the good life and had the best of it all, apart from true love, till she met Remi. She was never accepted by her cousins and aunties. The hatred went to a higher degree when Miss Dauphine's transferred her boutique, Mon Cherie, to her.

Her friend, Elaine, and her husband, Paul, stood by her all through the hurdles and cheered her up. She learned what it felt like to be loved and accepted. Although her grandma afforded her with the good things of life, she topped it with good virtues which never left her senses. She stood out among her female cousins. Her love story with Remi was very appealing, and the twist at the end was unimaginable. I had a good read.

There are a good number of facts that I liked about the book. The storyline itself was very intriguing. I was hooked to the last page. The structure of the chapters and the inclusion of prologue and epilogue made me understand every part of the story. The author’s descriptive skills are highly commendable. Some parts of the book played with my senses. It was very soothing reading the love story of Remi and Catherine. The twist was never expected but very much needed. The inclusion of the French language at some point gave it a strong flair of originality as opposed to fictional works.

The book has different themes which can be distilled from the different existing relationships. It also serves as a lesson that someone who loves you will look beyond the material substance and when you find the real one, you don’t need to impress or act in a certain way because whom they love is you. It was exceptionally well edited, and the punctuation trend was exceptional.

The only negative vibe I got from the book was the constant use of vulgar words. This is very subjective because it did give the book an aura of originality, and they were used in context.

I will rate the book 4 out of 4 stars. The negative aspect I found in this book was subjective. The book was a beautiful read; therefore, I have no reason to deduct any stars.

I will gladly recommend this book to adults who have a flair for love and suspense-themed books.

I love fictional books that are centered on those themes listed in this review, but I don't like books that have a lot of vulgar words. So I guess I would have to skip this one because of that reason. Your review is beautiful, by the way.

I feel bad for Catherine because her parents died at a young age. I hope everything works out well for her.
