A: disappointment. I didn’t really like any of the stories, they were all pretty unrealistic and this definitely isn’t always a bad this but in this case it was too much

This was good. I had read this book a while ago and this was a reread for me. Enjoyed it but read a lot more critically this time around. Loved the dogs are for christmas story and i felt that the worst story was the last one called the Christmas fairy.

I am not usually a fan of short stories I find they can be slightly annoying as they are cut a bit too short. However with this book I really enjoyed them and found they were the perfect set of stories to get me into the christmas spirit. Each one I enjoyed listening to and found I wanted to hear the end of. My favourites had to be the christmas fairy, a dream christmas and dogs are for Christmas. Definitely a book I would recommend to get you in the christmas spirit. xxx

koplomps's review against another edition
Read the first two stories and disliked both of them. The first one was honestly more 'creepy' than 'charming', I thought it was heading to some kind of assault. I know most christmas stories are meant to be unbelievable/magical but I just couldn't get through that. 2/5 stars
