Picked this up because my library system is featuring a collection of winter holiday ebooks. I didn't enjoy it, exactly, it's something I think I would have liked more in a lit class where I could talk about it with other people. It's a historical collection of Christmas stories written by Black writers. The earliest was published in 1885 & the last in 1953 and I struggle a bit with falling into older writing styles, especially in more literary fiction as opposed to fairy tales. I am glad I read this collection, though. I learned some interesting historical facts & genuinely enjoyed the humor in a couple of the stories.
