Woo hoo! Another tale from one of my favourite authors and I have three copies to give away to Aussie readers only! Post a comment and you will be entered in to the draw. Winners will be announced on Friday 9th November. I am enjoying Boo Humbug as I laze around on my holiday and will post my review soon 😉
Synopsis:~
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.
Author Bio:~

I sooo agree, she is one of my fave authors too!!!! I have been hanging out to get my hands on a copy of this book. No stress if I don’t win, I will go straight in when it comes out and get it (yes they are that good)!!To anyone who hasn’t read them, I highly recommend the three previous ‘Boo’ books. They are my absolute fave’s in christian fiction.
