Wry and Fun

For anyone who has every been stressed in the weeks, days or hours leading up to jingle bell festivities, this is therapy in book form. You'll cringe and laugh, but what you won't be doing is obsessing about your own upcoming parties. Everything is relative, as they say. In An Almost Perfect Christmas, Nina Stibbe serves up a perfect pre-holiday read that you'll swear must be somewhat drawn from her own (or anyone else's) Christmas catastrophes.
