Discovering new authors via her lists of orders...I can only imagine how dangerous her bookshop is!

Christmas by the Book | Anne Marie Ryan

#12Booksof2025 @TheEllieMo December 🎄
Tagged: Christmas By the Book by Anne Marie Ryan
It wouldn't be December without me reading my favorite Christmas book. A cozy bookshop, Christmas season, the English Isles, what could be better? A must for any bookworm. 📚

TheEllieMo How did I not know about this? A book about books, set in a location not that far away from me?? I was panicking a bit because I couldn‘t find it, it appears that it is published in the UK as

The Six Tales of Christmas: A Feel-Good Festive Read to Curl Up with This Winter

Born.A.Reader I need to find that edition. I'd love to have that one as well as the US one! 7d

The Lost Bookshop | Evie Woods

For the most part this was a very good read. an interesting concept with excellent character and story development. For me the only detractor was the vulgar and blasphemous language. While not steeped in it, it was frequent enough to lower the level of the dialog. I can never understand the reason why some feel such language is necessary. Perhaps that is why I prefer the classics.
