The Christmas Bookshop

The brand new feel-good Christmas novel from Sunday Times top ten bestselling author, Jenny Colgan. Carmen has always worked in her local department store. When the gorgeous old building closes its doors for good, she is suddenly adrift. An opportunity emerges in Edinburgh: a cute little bookshop with a spare room in her sister Sofia’s house. Carmen is hesitant to accept help, but with few options, she heads to the snowy city a month before Christmas. What Sofia didn’t say is that the shop is on its last legs and that turning things around before Christmas may be more than a miracle. Maybe this festive season will surprise them all.

The book follows Carmen as she tries to save the shop and make it a warm, welcoming haven at Christmas, with the magic of books and a sense of community guiding her path. Set against a snowy city backdrop, it explores friendship, resilience and the power of turning a cosy dream into reality this holiday season.
