- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really enjoyed the research that went into telling the backstory of these songs. Less thrilled with the narration, but doable.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book had some interesting stories, and, while out introduced me to some carols I hadn't heard before, it would have been better if, since I was listening to it as an audio book, The songs would have been included so that I could great the ones I wasn't familiar with. I understand that with copyrights to deal with that would not be at all practical, but it would have drastically increased my enjoyment of the book. The stories for the songs I am familiar with were enjoyable, and I'm glad to have learned one or two more Christmas songs, but for the most part, of I wasn't already familiar with the carol I didn't take the time to look it up.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5As delightful of a read as Volume 1. I t's beginning to feel like Christmas!
