Review:

Very much a let down

Review previously placed on my blog:

I have read The Christmas bookshop by Jenny Colgan. I read a Dutch copy from the library whilst listening to the audiobook. Read this for my in real life book club. This is an adult contemporary romance book.

Did not like this as you can see. I thought this was going to be a cosy read, but it really was not for me. The main character just kept fighting with her sister and that was really annoying to read about. The only part I liked was the bookshop, but that was actually a very small part of the book. The romance was kind of stupid, so did not enjoy that either. There was also quite a bit of fatphobia. Would not recommend.
