Who doesn't get fed up with the relatives sometimes?
In my top 3 Christmas movies of all time.

This time, the vacation comes to the Griswolds as the relatives come by for a helping of holiday cheer as Clark decides to makes his home a Christmas light spectacle while waiting for his Christmas bonus.

I think it resonates because we have all had those trying times with the family or the one relative you wish you could tell off or not have to sit next to.

The witty banter among the family as well as Chevy Chase's impeccable dry wit makes the film a venerable holiday classic for sure.

I will watch this movie any time of year LOL, but particularly on Christmas Eve while I'm wrapping presents.

Three new Christmas novellas starring the author's series detectives. Lots of holiday fun, especially if you already love one or more of the series.

I don't read Holiday novels especially Christmas I can be somewhat of a Grinch myself during this time. I have to say that Holly chase was the perfect introduction into a Holiday book character that I needed. I loved her snarky comments and commentary during the novel. The play on the classic Christmas Carol made it relatable enough because I knew that story and making the connection between the two during the story was fun to see in what ways it would come together. I think this is a classic book that could hold up to multiple re-reads even.
