A deliciously delightful read, the perfect choice if you like your relationship tales to be thoughtful, discerning and have deeper more meaningful tones. Christmas, in her late 30’s, lives in Tasmania and has set herself ten rules for happiness, most of the rules are easy to empathise with, the last one however, spells trouble.
There is a large and wide range of characters, some pop in to say hello, others are more lasting, all add to the authenticity of a small town life. Josephine Moon takes the story in unexpected directions, subtly creating a feeling of reality to this lovely warm velvety tale. If the shop existed in reality, it would have queues out the door, the descriptions of chocolate are just heavenly.
This is an enticing, charming novel that you can lose yourself completely in, it’s certainly worth visiting The Chocolate Apothecary. ~ Liz Robinson
