I enjoy books that are light hearted...therefore, I do not typically read John Grisham. I enjoyed this book. I liked the concept of skipping Christmas (or attempting to skip Christmas and everything that is involved).

I thought this was such a fun easy happy ho ho read. This was a quick read but really fun. Loved all the hussle and busyness that goes on in the holiday season.

Hilarious account of a couple's attempt to bypass the overblown commercialism of the holiday season--with disastrous results. Lighthearted, easy read. Recommended for anyone who thinks the pressures of Christmas come around a little too often.
