About this listen
An Irish Country Yuletide is a charming Christmas entry in Patrick Taylor's beloved internationally best-selling Irish Country series.
December 1965. ‘Tis the season once again in the cozy Irish village of Ballybucklebo, which means that Doctor Fingal Flahertie O’Reilly, his young colleague Barry Laverty, and their assorted friends, neighbors, and patients are enjoying all their favorite holiday traditions: caroling, trimming the tree, finding the perfects gifts for their near and dear ones, and anticipating a proper Yuletide feast complete with roast turkey and chestnut stuffing. There’s even the promise of snow in the air, raising the prospect of a white Christmas.
Not that trouble has entirely taken a holiday as the season brings its fair share of challenges as well, including a black-sheep brother hoping to reconcile with his estranged family before it’s too late, a worrisome outbreak of chickenpox, and a sick little girl whose faith in Christmas is in danger of being crushed in the worst way.
As roaring fireplaces combat the brisk December chill, it’s up to O’Reilly to play Santa, both literally and figuratively, to make sure that Ballybucklebo has a Christmas it will never forget!
Bonus: This heartwarming Yuletide tale also includes several mouthwatering recipes, straight from an Irish country kitchen.

Enjoyable
This is a wonderful series of books. When you want something to take you away from present day issues you can’t go wrong with Patrick Taylor books. John Keating is a wonderful narrator who brings all the characters to life.

Out of place
I’ve read the entire “Irish Country Doctor” series and was excited to read the latest instalment. Not sure why, but this story happens about 5 years BEFORE the previous book in Dec 1965. Some of these books are flashbacks and that’s been fine, but this one was released last but out of order. Additionally, a significant portion of the story revolves around some love letters from Dr. O’Reilly. It seems so out of place and awkward. There’s also a new major character introduced (Andrew) who isn’t mentioned in the rest of the timeline (post-1965). This felt like a previously-unreleased manuscript that wasn’t necessary. I LOVE this series… but wish I had never read this one book.
