This is both a thought-provoking and very enjoyable read.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book about a woman's journey for self-discovery and for chocolate. It was an engaging story that dealt with heavy issues while also teaching a lot about love and chocolate! The main character was well developed and it was fun to follow her on her travels around the world. The writing at times was quite sensual, full of romantic imagry. However, the book also deals with issues of substance such as the search for love and longing and what is ultimately satisfying. I highly recommend this book.


Reading this book as as sensual as eating chocolate

Reading this book is as sensual an experience as eating the chocolates the author so lovingly (and knowledgeably) describes. As if that were not enough, you can almost taste the luscious photographs. It's nearly more than a chocolate lover can bear. The best part is that because none of these chocolate delights have any calories, you can indulge as much as you want.

How To Slow Down

Losing track of time, I read this book in one sitting, finding myself quietly pulled into a peculiarly emotional landscape. Something to be slowly savored like the delicious chocolates that sparked this wonderful novel.






An interesting and different format

I recently had the pleasure of reading Enid Futterman's Bittersweet Journey. Bittersweet is a portrait of Charlotte, her friends and family brought alive by exquisite, unadorned prose and gorgeous photographs. The story of Charlotte's relationship to chocolate parallels her life. The book is interesting also because it contains intriguing information on the myriad varieties and forms of chocolate.

Absolutely superb, the most sensual tale of chocolate ever

I read this book over a year ago & found it to be enticing, exciting, & sensual. I learned about chocolates that I never knew existed like Valhrona. It also read as a journey that you could partake in - vivid & clear enough to allow the reader to actually see where they were & describing the chocolate to the point that you could almost taste it and feel it on your tongue. It truely MOVED ME in ways I never expected. I highly recommend it to anyone who truely loves chocolate (and if you don't already...watch out because you may just become a believer!!!!) I give it 10 stars!!!!!!
