Not a creature was stirring, not event a fruit bat.

December 7, 2015 by ardaigle 1 Comment

Wow, five years in a row and my Christmas tradition (rereading this little tome) is going strong! Love this little book and its irreverent look at the holidays.

This year I had my book club read it, as they really enjoyed “The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove” and it is a quick read, which is perfect for the busy holiday season.

Reviews from my club were mostly favorable, though one person who was listening on audio wasn’t a big fan, though her criticism was that with so many characters, it was hard to keep track. I do think this is better for reading, as it jumps in POV quite often.

If you are looking for something that is NOT your average Hallmark Channel Christmas treacle, but still has a happy(ish) ending, look no further than Christopher Moore’s book. :)

I am a born and bred southerner and recent transplant to the Midwest. I read because I want to, because I NEED to, and because I'm possibly ignoring the frigid temperatures. Until spring, and then I may read outside. I also enjoy cooking, witty banter, and cheese. All the cheese. View ardaigle's reviews»
