I put this book on hold in my library app, and it took months for it to become available, so I ended up finally getting access to it at the end of January once Christmas had passed. The goal was to read it over the Christmas holidays, but it apparently wasn't meant to be. I wasn't sure how I would like this book when I began reading up, but I ended up really enjoying it. The premise of the book is that Carmen, who is a bit of a black sheep of the family and self-proclaimed screw up, gets a position managing a bookshop in Edinburgh, Scotland. The bookshop is in need of sales in order to remain open, so Carmen has to perform a bit of a Christmas miracle to keep the doors open. Along with the above mentioned plotline, mix in some strife with her sister, some romance, and some children, and you get a lovely little holiday read. This books is perfect if you are wanting an uplifting and fun read while you sip some hot cocoa next to the fireplace or snuggle up in a warm bed.
