If you haven’t read the other books in this series, you might have a bit of trouble sorting out the characters. However, it won’t take you long to understand their personalities and relationships. Lois is rewriting “A Christmas Carol” to put her own twist on it, but it doesn’t end up quite like she envisioned it. Alfred is in charge of promoting it, but he, too, makes a major blunder. Meanwhile, the two new dads, overwhelmed by their infants and sleep deprived, look to Lois’s play for a bit of rest away from their respective home life. This, too, proved to be unwise. But it’s Christmas, and a miracle might just be waiting in the wings. This charming tale will amuse and entertain you and is quite enjoyable, whether it’s Christmas time or not. ( )

NCLA REVIEW - With Boo Humbug Rene Gutterson continues to follow the lives and adventures of residents of small-town Skary, Indiana. In this installment, eccentric Lois Stepaphanolopolis decides to stage a production of Dicken’s A Christmas Carol, which she has rewritten to resemble a Halloween play more than a Christmas one. Two of her actors, both new fathers, join the production just to get away from the house for a while—a strategy that backfires miserably. The book, like the play, is a farce from beginning to end, with over-the-top characters in madcap situations, but it's a fun, light-hearted holiday read. Think of it as The Best Christmas Pageant Ever for grown-ups. Rating: 3—AG ( )
