Laura and Joy, fearless members in the Stitch ‘n Bitch knitting club are tired of their husbands do nothing, or at least as little as possible, attitude towards holiday planning, entertaining and gift buying. So they boycott, they go on strike, if the men don’t care, neither do they. Soon other members of the group join in which leads to a comical mess of trees and wrapping, not to mention family photos and children’s pageants. When harried husbands are involved you just don’t know what you are going to get.I laughed my way through this book. There were a couple of rather token moments that Roberts added to tug at our heartstrings, but for the most part it was an hilarious romp through the hectic holiday with a magnifying glass into marriages and what when you boil it all down is important.Amazon Review: Christmas Man-Stylehttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312370229/ref=cm_cr_mts_prod_img
