Skipping Christmas by John Grisham

2.0

The movie was better. I don’t know what I was expecting but it certainly wasn’t this. The movie was funny and the idea of your neighbourhood becoming infatuated with you continuing Christmas traditions was a comical masterpiece. However, in the book, it took everything so seriously that everything anyone did seemed over the top and incredibly intrusive ( lacked the comedy behind it). Also Blair (the daughter) was maybe a lot to quick in her decision making abilities (if you have read the book you know what I mean). Also Luther (main character? / father) was incredibly annoying and overdramatic. A quick holiday read but not a fun one, watch the movie instead.
