dreamingsoftly 's review for:
The Christmas Bookshop
by Jenny Colgan
lighthearted
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
The majority of the characters are deeply unlikable and the only way the book could get you to root for the protagonist was to make a random side character a stereotypical mean girl villain in the last fourth of the story. There was also some weird Quaker propaganda in the book, but the book also didn’t seem to treat the faith with much respect.
