Book Review: Skipping Christmas by John Grisham

Skipping Christmas was enjoyable and could be easily read during the chaos of Christmas. The characters were relatable though presented in an unreliable narrative perspective. This isn't a bad thing, simply something to be aware about.

The plot is different from many other Christmas stories, yet still fits the traditional archetype of what a person would expect from one. It captures a reader's attention from the challenges the characters face to the tragedy brought about by their own decisions.

As a side note, this story lends itself to Marxist Criticism very well and an entire academic paper could be written by the criticism's application.
