The struggle of one man to reclaim order to his holiday season beginning in October was quite humorously written. Mr Baxter endeavors to have his wife stick to a budget, trim down the Christmas card addressee list, and attempts to resist the “machinery” of the holiday. Despite his intentions, he remains a sentimentalist and gamely finds himself embroiled in holiday predicaments such as office parties and gift buying.

Leftcoastzen What a great cover! 2y
Jess_Read_This @Leftcoastzen The cover is why I bought it, haha! It caught my eye immediately. But the story is a cute one. I didn‘t realize the author wrote “Father of the Bride”- I always liked that movie (both original and the Steve Martin version). 2y
