perrym45 's review for:
The Christmas Bookshop
by Jenny Colgan
This is a lovely story set in the heart of Edinburgh at Christmas time and it has many layers.
You have two sisters, the oldest is hardworking, successful with the trappings of wealth and the younger, although gifted, refused to be compared, flunks her exams, works in retail, no prospects, no boyfriend, no kids! However, both sisters are jealous of each other.
You then have the "custodian" of the bookshop, once wealthy but who has sqandered the family's wealth over the years. He too is carrying a dark secret which has weighed him down all his life.
Together with a couple of other characters, Colgan weaves a beautiful story of hope at Christmas time in the beautiful city of Edinburgh!
