Boo Humbug!

What a great title for a book! Leave a comment, and you'll be entered to win one of two copies I'm giving away.

If you like giving fun and offbeat Christmas gifts, this is a super choice for the readers on your list. Queen of quirky comedy, Rene Gutteridge returns with a new and hilarious holiday saga in her popular series from Skary, Indiana. Like the cover says: Christmas is scarier than you think!

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Readers have come to love the eccentric characters from Skary, Indiana, in Rene Gutteridge’s popular Boo! series. Now, in Boo Humbug! they’re back – and they’re stirring up a large amount of holiday havoc.

It’s Christmastime in Skary, and the town is planning an original production of A Christmas Carol with a horror spin. As showtime approaches, things go very awry for director Lois Stepaphanopolis. She panics when she discovers that her marketing director loathes Christmas and that the audience has been promised not Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, but the real Christmas story. Can the actors pull off the improv of all improvs and convince their community to embrace the true meaning of the Christmas season?

Boo Humbug! offers readers a delightful glimpse into small town, community life with heartwarming humor and winsome characters. And in the end, the true meaning of Christmas shines out bright and clear, in a decidedly un-Skary way.
