“A heartfelt and lovely Christmas tale for book lovers
everywhere!”—Jenny Colgan, author of The Bookshop on the Shore In
small-town England, two booksellers facing tough times decide to
spread some Christmas cheer through the magic of anonymous book
deliveries in this uplifting holiday tale for book lovers everywhere.
Nora and her husband, Simon, have run the beautiful oak-beamed book
shop in their small British village for thirty years. But times are
tough and the shop is under threat of closure—this Christmas season
will really decide their fate. When an elderly man visits the store
and buys the one book they've never been able to sell, saying it's the
perfect gift for his sick grandson, it gives Nora an idea. She and
Simon will send out books to those feeling down this Christmas. Maybe
they can't save their bookstore, but at least they'll have one final
chance to lift people's spirits through the power of reading. After
gathering nominations online, Nora and Simon quietly deliver books to
six residents of the village in need of some festive cheer, including
a single dad of twins who is working hard to make ends meet, a teenage
boy grieving for his big sister, a local Member of Parliament who is
battling depression, and a teacher who's newly retired and living on
her own. As the town prepares for a white Christmas, the books begin
to give the recipients hope, one by one. But with the future of the
bookshop still up in the air, Nora and Simon will need a Christmas
miracle—or perhaps a little help from the people whose lives they've
touched—to find a happy ending of their own....
