Joanne Harris - The Girl with No Shadow (published in the UK as The Lollipop Shoes) In this sequel to Chocolat, master confectioner and benevolent witch Vianne Rocher trades the quaint village of Lansquenet for a very contemporary Paris - complete with le métro, iPods, and identity theft. Five years after she closed up her scandalous chocolaterie, respectable Vianne no longer practices magic or makes her own sweets. But old habits resurface when a beguiling (and tech-savvy) enchantress befriends her daughter and covets Vianne's life.
Chocolat by Joanne HarrisChocolat is an enchanting novel about temptation, pleasure, and the ultimate folly of self-denial. The town of Lansquenet, solemnly preparing for Lent, is set astir when Vianne Rocher and her spirited daughter arrive on the heels of the carnival and open a chocolate shop across the square from the church. Vianne's uncanny ability to perceive her customers' private discontents and alleviate them with just the right chocolate treats quickly charms the villagers--and enrages Pere Reynaud, the conservative local priest. Certain that only a witch could create such magical cures, Reynaud vows to block the chocolate festival Vianne plans for Easter Sunday
