The instant New York Times bestseller!
"Sublime...Colgan infuses her latest book with humor, wit, suspense and a perfectly cast love triangle."--USA Today
"The Christmas Bookshop is literary hot chocolate with a bourbon shot: hot, sweet but with a surprising emotional kick."--The Times (UK)
Perfect for the holidays! A brand-new heartwarming Christmas novel from the beloved New York Times bestselling author of The Bookshop on the Corner and Christmas at the Island Hotel.
Laid off from her department store job, Carmen has perilously little cash and few options. The prospect of spending Christmas with her perfect sister Sofia, in Sofia's perfect house with her perfect children and her perfectly ordered yuppie life does not appeal.
Frankly, Sofia doesn't exactly want her prickly sister Carmen there either. But Sofia has yet another baby on the way, a mother desperate to see her daughters get along, and a client who needs help revitalizing his shabby old bookshop. So Carmen moves in and takes the job.
Thrown rather suddenly into the inner workings of Mr. McCredie's ancient bookshop on the picturesque streets of historic Edinburgh, Carmen is intrigued despite herself. The store is dusty and disorganized but undeniably charming. Can she breathe some new life into it in time for Christmas shopping? What will happen when a famous and charismatic author takes a sudden interest in the bookshop--and Carmen? And will the Christmas spirit be enough to help heal her fractured family?
- A touching holiday read Perfect for fans of uplifting winter romances
- A delightful Christmas gift

This was a wonderful Christmas read with great character development and the setting was perfection!
I am enjoying it! :-)
This is a well written typical Christmas story that is very enjoyable. I was pleasantly surprised that the story held more meaning than the typical holiday romance. I would recommend it to anyone who could use a reminder that love of many kinds continues in this confusing, often troubling, world. Read it for relaxing comfort with a cup of hot chocolate on a cold and snowy day.
Great holiday cozy read!Ordered another book from the author and I'm looking forward to starting it.
Irritatingly self pitying Carmen almost made me give up on this book. I persevered but by the end I was grateful to turn the last page. Could have and should have been much better. Too much self pity, envy of her sister, who was also quite irritating. Best character was Mr McCreedie.
