All the Light We Cannot See? France Sights??

I don't know if anyone has read the Pulitzer Prize book, All the Light We Cannot See - as it was set in France.

Has anyone checked out any of the spots that were mentioned in the book? Sights in St Malo from the book?

Museum of Natural History in Paris? Is it worth seeing? I read once that everything is labeled in French.

Check the detailed reviews on Trip Advisor. Some folks rated highly, others not so. Apparently there are some descriptions in English but not many and only cursory info.

We thought about visiting the Museum of Natural History after reading the book, but when I saw it listed as a good place to take children, I quickly said "No." Also, we know there are good natural history museums in the United States we can visit, and we preferred to visit the Louvre and other sites unique to Paris.

Loved the book and would love to visit St Malo. My boss, who also loved the book, went last year and sent me a postcard that just said "I didn't find the diamond!".
