About this listen

When an exotic stranger, Vianne Rocher, arrives in the French village of Lansquenet and opens a chocolate boutique directly opposite the church, Father Reynaud denounces her as a serious moral danger to his flock - especially as it is the beginning of Lent, the traditional season of self-denial.

As passions flare and the conflict escalates, the whole community takes sides. Can the solemnity of the church compare with the sinful pleasure of a chocolate truffle?

This is a wonderful book written by a brilliant storyteller. Deliciously descriptive, builds suspense and intrigue, and beautifully narrated.

I got the book to listen to because I enjoyed the movie. it was good to listen to the real thing; characters more complex in their actions and feelings, situations not as dramatic, happy endings not a requirement.

Not like Hollywood

Sweet, quite similar to the movie that I watched like 20 years ago. I was surprised to find out that there are four books in this series; Im not sure what else there is to write about but ... in for a penny!

Sweet like chocolat
