Beautiful Vivianne Rocher opens a chocolate shop in the small French town of Lansquenet. The people of this isolated little village view her and her daughter with suspicion, especially when she serves her decadent delicacies on Sundays! Located across from the church, she can see the local priest always watching. She thinks of him as the man in black who has haunted her dreams her since childhood.

Vivianne wears bright colors and identifies closely with anyone who comes into her shop, even the "river people" when they park their houseboats on the banks of the local river. Vivianne is carefree, happy and giving to all she meets. Is she a witch as the priest believes or just a sensitive person who strives to help others? The magic of this delightful read may remain your heart for some time. I really liked Chocolat.
