Title: Waste of time
Review: I must say after having read "Chocolat" this was a huge disappointment! Even though, in my view quite a few of the characters are distinct and developed, this book comes out to nothing. Mostly becasue it's simply tremendously boring.The sleepy community on a French seaside doesn't exactly get exciting by reading about a bunch of grouchy people who sit around and do nothing but complain all day long.It completely lacks the wonderful atmosphere of "Chocolat", and that fantastic magic is just not there. I got a bit suprised by some of the happenings at the end, which is why I give it 2 stars and not 1.
