sarahrara 's review for:
The Girl Who Saved Christmas
by Matt Haig
I listened to this again over the holidays as my Christmas spirit was a bit harder to locate this year.
It's a sweet and uncomplicated story about hope. Though it does have just enough Dickensian gloom in it not to become boring or trite (in fact, Mr Dickens himself makes an appearance), and quite a bit of humour. My favourite parts were the bit with Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, as well as of course the infamous Captain Soot.
Carey Mulligan has a very pleasant voice and is up there with my favourite narrator Aoife McMahon when it comes to bringing a story to life - a delight to listen to.
