Miracle on Regent Street REVIEW! #1585

Name of the book – Miracle on Regent Street

Name of the author – Ali Harris 

Evie Taylor, a girl with a big heart, is lost in the big city. For the past two years, Evie has lived an invisible life in London: her neighbors think she’s just moved in, her sister mistakes her for a live-in nanny, and even Evie’s manager can’t remember her name. But this Christmas, everything changes. Working in the stockroom of Hardy’s, an old-fashioned, family-run department store, Evie learns the store will be sold unless its fortunes improve by December 26th. Determined to save it, she plans a secret transformation. Amidst the flurry, an accidental romance with the enigmatic Joel offers her a chance at a new identity. Will Evie finally be noticed?

Overall, this book was a great disappointment, even though I did appreciate the beginning of the book and found myself smiling a little at some of the endearing parts. While the concept of the covert makeovers (greater anonymity) was entertaining, the plot became somewhat repetitious. The store itself is like a different character that needs a little tender loving care to bring back her radiance. This is a very endearing, feel-good book that emphasizes friendship and the idea that you shouldn’t change who you are for other people or try to impress them; instead, you should be proud of who you are and not feel the need to pretend to be someone you’re not!

It took me longer to finish this book than I had anticipated. While it wasn’t particularly awful, it wasn’t the finest book I’ve ever read, which was a bit of a letdown. intricately intertwined narratives about several characters and what transpires when they become aware of one another. Though a bit formulaic, this is a charming, cozy, and Christmassy novel that isn’t too overly festive to read in the summer. 

Rating of the book – 3⭐/5⭐
