Midnight at the Christmas Bookshop

By Jenny Colgan

Book Overview

Your most delightful holiday read: the sequel to the instant New York Times bestseller The Christmas Bookshop, a charming Scottish romance from beloved author Jenny Colgan.

Christmas comes early--far too early--to McCredie's little Old Town bookshop in Edinburgh, the setting for a cozy Christmas bookshop romance. It's summer, but an American production company has decided that McCredie's is the perfect location to film a very cheesy Christmas movie. After all, who can resist the charmingly narrow historic street with its Victorian grey stone buildings and warmly lit shop windows?

Carmen Hogan, the bookshop's manager, is amused and a bit horrified by the goings-on, but the money the studio is paying is too good to pass up. She uses the little windfall from filming to create new displays and fend off a buyout offer from an obnoxious millionaire who wants to turn McCredie's into a souvenir shop selling kilts made in China and plastic Nessies. Still reeling slightly from a breakup, Carmen's not particularly looking forward to the holidays, making this a perfect second chance romance. But just as snow begins to fall and the lights of Christmas blink on, all sorts of lovely new possibilities present themselves in this feel-good story...for McCredie's bookstore, and for Carmen herself.

A touching holiday read Perfect for fans of uplifting winter romancesA delightful Christmas gift

Not aligned with my values

I read this book up to chapter 15 then had to quit because it was revealed that the male nanny is gay. I don’t read books with gay characters.
