Christmas by the Book by Anne Marie Ryan

 

Title: Christmas by the Book
Author: Anne Marie Ryan
GenreContemporary Fiction, Holiday Fiction

Nora and Simon have owned the local bookshop since Nora's mother (the previous owner) died. They have raised their daughter in the flat above it as well. But having fallen on hard times, they have gotten behind in their bills and are reluctantly being forced to face the idea of selling the store and moving out in the new year. However, as part of their last Christmas in the shop, they decide to have others write in and nominate someone who could use some cheering up over the holidays, and randomly choose 6 people to send out 6 Christmas-themed books, all done anonymously. The story explains just how these surprise books affect those that receive them, as well as change the story of the booksellers as the holiday draws to a close! A wonderful feel-good story for the holiday season.
