The beginning of this book feels a bit slow, but then you become addicted to it. I really loved it 😍

Very Christmassy, very hygge, not very romancey, and I feel the need to lecture the lead character on basic living skills and interpersonal relationships so... there ya go. Do with that what you will.

Loved it! A perfect Christmas story. Characters that grew and grew on you. Relationships that change and bloom. A lovely story for the holidays.

I have absolutely loved reading The Christmas Bookshop that I struggled to put it down. Having read many books by Jenny Colgan this book does not disappoint. If you want a cosy feel-good Christmas book then I can’t recommend this enough!
