The Bookseller’s Gift
€11.98
Catherine and her mum Ann have decided to live their dream, by opening a bookshop on Ireland’s west coast. But at Christmas, when disaster strikes, it looks like they’ll have to close for the year’s most important shopping week. They’ve been working so hard they’ve barely had time to get to know their neighbours, but builder Fury O’Shea and his dog The Divil, who come to the rescue, open their eyes to the stunning Finfarran peninsula, and what it really means to live a dream. Fury has his own troubles though. The forest his family has maintained for generations is being sold off and, feeling old and tired, he hasn’t had the strength to resist. But nothing’s going to stop him making his annual gifts of Christmas trees to his neighbours and, seeing devastation in the bookshop, he gives the largest tree to Catherine.

'A festive feast of a novel ... I absolutely loved it!' CATHY KELLY
Ever since Catherine and her mother opened the doors of their small-town bookshop, they have been living their dream. And Catherine has plans to make this festive season their biggest ever. But when some building work leads to disaster, the future of Lissbeg Books is in real jeopardy.
As Christmas draws nearer, Catherine is desperate to hide from everyone how bad things are. And, slowly, she starts to realise that her dedication to the bookshop has meant neglecting other parts of her life. If Lissbeg Books closes, will she have anything left?
Is it too late for her to become a real part of Finfarran's tightknit community, and possibly find love along the way? As Catherine summons the courage to ask for help from those around her, she begins to hope that more than one of her dreams will come true before Christmas arrives ...
