"Sublime.Colgan infuses her latest book with humor, wit, suspense and a perfectly cast love triangle." -- USA Today on The Christmas Bookshop "The Christmas Bookshop is literary hot chocolate with a bourbon shot: hot, sweet but with a surprising emotional kick. Colgan has woven together the ingredients for a fiendishly addictive festive romantic comedy." -- The Times (UK) "Colgan's new Edinburgh-set Christmas novel is full of references to books, descriptions of the twisty insides of a bookshop, and fun details about Scotland, Quakerism, and the centuries-old Great Yew Tree of Ormiston. Get ready to root for these charming characters as they bungle their way toward a merry Christmas." -- Library Journal (starred review) on The Christmas Bookshop "Colgan's writing is gentle and tender. At the heart of The Christmas Bookshop are the important connections we make with others and the reality that we don't have just the family we were born into; we also have the family that we create through those we come to love.

And in every charming story that Colgan writes, we end up feeling that those characters who grace her pages have become so familiar and dear to us that they are family." -- Bookreporter.com "The Christmas Bookshop was a feel-good holiday novel about a group of people--some related, some not--who learned what family truly means, what they themselves were capable of, and how Christmas can be a magical time of the year.[By] the final page, readers will be happy with how everyone pulls together in a time of need and the amount of joy and love that shines through Colgan's storytelling." -- Harlequin Junkie.
