Movie-lover's Book Club: Skipping Christmas
Read the book, watch the movie, and let’s get to it! This month we will discuss the comedy book Skipping Christmas by John Grisham, and the movie adaptation Christmas with the Kranks (2004) starring Tim Allen, Jamie Lee Curtis and Dan Aykroyd.
Whether you loved it, hated it, or bailed halfway through, come join us for some honest insights, fun chats, and maybe a few hot takes!
Crowded shops, corny office parties, fruitcakes, and unwanted presents? Luther and Nora Krank have decided that just this once, they’ll skip the holiday season all together. Will they make it to their alternate destination, or will skipping Christmas turn out to have enormous consequences?
Copies of both are ready for you to snag through the Manatee Library – so grab yours today!
Snacks and drinks will be provided.
