Review: Chocolat

Chocolat by Joanne Harris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An awesome read indeed. The story is quite different from the movie version, I liked movie version though, but all in all it is a goodread. The plot is elegantly narrated by the protagonist and the villain.
The story is of free will versus conservative traditionalists, Love/friendship versus control and manipulation which is garnished with mouth watering chocolates and other delicacies.

As with the title of the book the plot is indeed dark, mysterious, bitter yet sweet as chocolate. It is beautiful tale of Love and Hope. Not a usual romantic story. A nice winter read indeed.

I would highly recommend it.
