The LWD December book club selection is Skipping Christmas by John Grisham. It’s a short read because I know we are all extra busy this month, right? But it’s still important to set aside a bit of down time each day and reading is a great thing to do during that time.

Skipping Christmas
by John Grisham
Imagine a year without Christmas. No crowded malls, no corny office parties, no fruitcakes, no unwanted presents. That’s just what Luther and Nora Krank have in mind when they decide that, just this once, they’ll skip the holiday altogether.
Theirs will be the only house on Hemlock Street without a rooftop Frosty, they won’t be hosting their annual Christmas Eve bash, they aren’t even going to have a tree. They won’t need one, because come December 25 they’re setting sail on a Caribbean cruise. But as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequences—and isn’t half as easy as they’d imagined.
Note: Many of us are doing our best to avoid purchasing from Amazon and a number of other large corporations, for a variety of reasons. I recommend purchasing books from local book stores if you have them in your area. If not, Bookshop.org is a great option.
