## Customer feedback

Aggregate ratings are favourable overall, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a smaller set of lower ratings means reactions are not uniformly positive. The ratings do not explain what listeners liked or disliked, so they cannot establish how the narration or the book's practical guidance works for a particular buyer.
