When I was finished with this book I could not stop laughing for days thinking about it. I immediately gave the book to my sister inlaw then my brother and then my Aunt. They all had the same impressions of the book I did. They could not put it down.

I listened to this audiobook one day while driving in my car. It was so funny that I laughed until I cried, which is not a good thing while you're driving! I love this book so much that I can't wait for Christmas this year, so I can listen to it again, and I am going to buy the Hardcover edition as well, just because I love it so much! I have enjoyed many of Grisham's books, but this is by far my abosolute favorite. I would love to see it made into a movie, if it could be done exactly the way it is written!

This book was absolutely impossible to put down. Thank heavens it wasn't long... A great story about good intentions gone bad and a community redeeming itself. A story can't have an unpleasant ending! It would be interesting with an alternative ending, one that is not so "Christmasy".

This book expressed exactly what I would often like to do at Christmas. So much madness, so little Christ. But also, what happened to Luther would surely happen to me in some form or another. A great read, with both humer and sensitivity. May be Grisham's best.

Awesome
Its awesome. I would recomend this to my friends, as it gets you in the holiday cheer and is fun to compare to with the movie Christmas with the Kranks.... John is an awesome writer the descriptions and story line are awesome,and the comedy adds a nice spice. It is a easy read. GO READ IT

I think John Grisham is great. I'm not allowed to read other books by him, but he is exellent. The only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 is that sometimes you don't know whats going on. But overall, I think it can be a book for 8 and up. It has some cursing. I am 9 years old and I love it. I reccomend it for comedy lovers. High in the funny level. Luther complains an awful lot and it may upset some parents because it may make their kids think over christmas and not like it. It is mentioned a few times that Santa is not real. Highly FUNNY!
