Vianne is a divorced woman with a little child. She moves to a small french village during the time when the Catholic church is very powerful. She is not accepted and has a lot of difficulties starting a business with her chocolate shop.

Will the skeptical people change, when they taste the amazing chocolate Vianne makes? Will their hearts get warmer, as the chocolate they are drinking? Will Vianne find a new love or will she stay a single, friendly woman? Read Chocolat and taste the flavor of this story, both sweet and sour.

Vicky recommends The Right Attitude to Rain


The Right Attitude to Rain is one really interesting book that leads the reader into Edinburgh and makes him/her feel like he/she is in Scotland. The feeling that the book brings is the most interesting thing about the book, but not the only thing. The story itself is about a woman who is almost 45, and she is confused about her feelings towards a man who is 14 years younger than her. She wants to be with him but her strong morals stop her. Her thoughts about this and other philosophical themes are what keeps the reader intrigued during the whole book.

If you liked the book Chocolat, you would probably like this book too because the styles are similar in their descriptions.

How can a pair of pants symbolize friendship? Easily; with the help of trust, love, and four girls, whose story would make you realize how much your friends mean to you. However it's not as 'sweet' as it sounds - there's drama, tears, disappointement; just like in real life. If you like entertaining books with happy endings and friendship that survives through everything, you will definitely enjoy The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.
