About this listen
The tree is decorated, the cookies are baked, and the packages are wrapped, but the biggest celebration this Christmas is Gaby Summerhill's wedding. Since her husband died three years ago, Gaby's four children have drifted apart, each consumed by the turbulence of their own lives. They haven't celebrated Christmas together since their father's death, but when Gaby announces that she's getting married - and that the groom will remain a secret until the wedding day - she may finally be able to bring them home for the holidays. But the wedding isn't Gaby's only surprise - she has one more gift for her children, and it could change all their lives forever.
With deeply affecting characters and the emotional twists of a James Patterson thriller, The Christmas Wedding is a fresh look at family and the magic of the season.

A solid, good book
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I would recommend this story because it provides an unique view inside a family and their unique celebration of Christmas and looking forward.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
The ending was very satisfying.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
I thought that the narrator was excellent. She captured the tone of the book and its characters.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
If this book were a movie, I wouldn't go to see it because I generally prefer more folksy stories. However, this was an excellent story.
Any additional comments?
This book had interesting characters, a plot that I couldn't predict, and a big event that made Christmas special for the family. It was a different kind of Christmas story and I'm really glad that I read it.

great feel good read
If you could sum up The Christmas Wedding in three words, what would they be?
emotional funny sad
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Christmas Wedding?
the wedding scene is priceless. Who will she pick?
Which scene was your favorite?
Patterson does it again. I love the personal time with each character and you think you know how it will end, but then again Patterson always provides a curve

A feel good read
Where does The Christmas Wedding rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It is right up there. I like many types of books. This one is a great to just sit back and enjoy with a cup of tea.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Christmas Wedding?
When she finally decided who the groom was going to be.
Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favorite?
They all were my favorite. The book would not have been as good if even one character was left out
If you could take any character from The Christmas Wedding out to dinner, who would it be and why?
none. Again I feel that the story needed all characters.

Somewhat boring
What did you like best about The Christmas Wedding? What did you like least?
The story was very predictable so it was somewhat boring. Character development was okay and of course the characters did what you expected them to do.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Something with more suspense in it.
What didn???t you like about the narrators???s performance?
The narrators had more of a sing song voice, not what I enjoy
Did The Christmas Wedding inspire you to do anything?
Yes, not to re listen to it again
Any additional comments?
Some may like it. I didn't feel it stood up to the description of the book.

So True
I only now came across this book. Perhaps it’s just as well as having lived a lot of life I can appreciate the many, many truths of this story and know how un fabricated the story lines are. Though not a Christmas rom-com but rather a well written story taking place over Christmas. it is real and it is hard and it is wonderful. No trumped up drama, no drama that drags on. It’s family, it’s life choices, it’s adjusting to new normals and seeing new possibilities. It’s being brave and determined and open. It’s realizing that though different from how originally expected - hope and happiness can be recaptured.
