Negative Positive
Title: Christmas spirit?
Review: In "Skipping Christmas" Grisham is totally unrealistic about how any normal person or community might react because one couple decide to go on a cruise. The reaction of the community was, I thought, very mean spirited and totally lacking in the true meaning of Christmas. To not advise their daughter of their plans is also totally unrealistic. While this was a mildly pleasant "read" I found it predictable and drawn-out. Though a short book, I found myself wanting the author to get to the point. Even the ending does not make you feel that it is a community of which you would want to be a part. Skip "Skipping Christmas" and reread Barbara Robinson's, "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever"
