You read the book, now try the chocolate at York’s Choc Affair…. #Vianne

Thank you for the April email. Another #Vianne prequal??? 😍😍😍 Can't wait for that.

Rain here today. Which is a shame as I had/have a b-ball physio sesh at the end of my street at noon. Dunno if we gonna cancel or not.

Yesterday was gorgeous. Stayed on balcony till 7!

Lovely warm audience at Barton grange - and look! They have my roses! #Vianne

The @joannechocolat.bsky.social book, a treasure for sure, is a #Vianne book just as her #Chocolat. Our introduction to that character and her skyrocket to notoriety. Made into a movie with Johnny Depp. Maybe you know it?

#HELLHOLE is the 1st in a trilogy by #DUNE author's son, #BrianHerbert.

Am VERY much enjoying two surprise hard back books at the mo. One is a signed @joannechocolat.bsky.social #Vianne tale which to my dismay is the final new to me book of hers.

The other was bought 2nd hand online cos book store didn't have it in database. #HELLHOLE be the best €32 I spent so far 🙃🙃🙃

Vianne by Joanne Harris Secrets.Chocolate.A touch of magic… On a warm July evening, Sylviane Rochas scatters her mother's ashes in New York and lets the changing wind blow her to the French seaside town of Marseille. For the first time in her life, Vianne holds the future in her own hands. Charming her way into a job as a waitress in a local bistrot, she knows that she is not here to stay – when her child is born in a few months, she must be gone.

Reading #JoanneHarris again ... 🍫😍

“And sometimes we call magic from the very humblest of places; words at random in a book. A novel, a grimoire, a bible, perhaps. Maybe even a cookbook.”
– Joanne Harris, Vianne 📖

Now that I have finished #Peaches which is the next book that was published? I wanna save #TheStrawberryThief for now cos it be the last #Vianne book available. Too good to binge.

Goooood fooking morning! ☕☕☕🚬🚬🚬🧀🧀🧀 The first true Autumnal day here sounds like

My the most favourite thing about the prequel is that it is set in the year I was born! Hehehehe! Yes, there are many more things I love, but it's nice to see my birth year in a different context!

A photo of Joanne Harris's latest novel Vianne, with a few squares of chocolate resting on the cover, which is a dark, rich orange with the title in a bold white font and the author's name above it in gold. The cover shows a woman's hand holding a partly-unwrapped bar of chocolate with a red and white checked wrapper. Next to the book is a scattering of tarot cards - the Two of Wands, the Three of Cups, the Tower, the Lovers, the Fool, the Hermit and Death. In the top left corner, a bright green leaf peeps into the frame, beside a pretty pale blue and white cup and saucer with gold decor. There is a chunk of chocolate resting in the saucer.

TEN TICKETS LEFT!
