Blog Tour: Boo Humbug by Rene Gutteridge

| | Comments (67)

I recently had the enjoyable experience of getting to read Boo Humbug by Rene Gutteridge. This is the fourth in the 'Boo' Series, but have no fear...if you have not read the first three, you will still be able to enjoy this delightful tale!

Like millions of others, I love A Christmas Carol, that immortal story crafted by Charles Dickens. I have seen it many times and in some different versions (like An American Christmas Carol or The Grinch Who Stole Christmas), so I was looking forward to a book immediately alerted me to the fact that Scrooge was lurking in the wings (who else would be saying 'humbug'?)

Boo Humbug is a fun mix of A Christmas Carol and the wacky residents of Skary, Indiana. The holiday season starts off in Skary with Lois Stepaphonoplis creating her own version of A Christmas Carol. She brings more and more of the townspeople into the production, but something is amiss...and it's not just Lois' modern take on this Christmas classic. After days of rehearsal, the big night has arrived and it comes to the attention of Lois and Alfred that a dreadful mistake has been made...just wait until you read the twist in this story! It will warm the coldest of Scrooge hearts!

I have two copies of Boo Humbug to give away to two randomly drawn lucky winners! I am sorry, but this drawing is only available for United States addresses. And all you have to do is leave a comment below! Really, that's it! Just leave a comment! And if you would like an extra chance at winning, you can always share the information about this contest with others. Just be sure to let me know you have done so!

I will be conducting the random drawing on November 3rd around dinner time (EST) And for more great giveaways, go visit The Fall, Y'all! Bloggy Giveaway
