The Girl With No Shadow

The Girl with No Shadow: A Novel (P.S.)I just finished reading this book and wanted to share it with you! The Girl with No Shadow is the sequel to the book Chocolat by Joanne Harris.
     It takes place four years after Chocolat ended with Vianne and Annouk living under the new names of Yanne and Annie. Many new characters are introduced in this book, Rosette (Vianne's four year old daughter) and the enchanting Zozie.
    Vianne is again making her wickedly delicious chocolates and with the help of her new found friend, Zozie, they turn the Paris chocolate shop in to a thriving business.
     Safe and comfortable in her new life, Vianne soon begins to learn that mischief is a foot and Zozie maybe casting some poisonous spells.
    This story is a real page turner that makes you lust after homemade chocolate truffles with each page (I actually made my husband stop at a chocolate shop and buy a Big box). If you haven't read Chocolat - then read it or see the movie, with Juliette Binoche and Johhny Depp (ooh la la) and go straight on to this one.
