Publisher Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A classic tale for modern times from a beloved storyteller, John Grisham offers a hilarious look at the chaos and frenzy that have become part of our holiday tradition.

Imagine a year without Christmas. No crowded malls, no corny office parties, no fruitcakes, no unwanted presents. That’s just what Luther and Nora Krank have in mind when they decide that, just this once, they’ll skip the holiday altogether.

Theirs will be the only house on Hemlock Street without a rooftop Frosty, they won’t be hosting their annual Christmas Eve bash, they aren’t even going to have a tree. They won’t need one, because come December 25 they’re setting sail on a Caribbean cruise. But as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequences—and isn’t half as easy as they’d imagined.

Don’t miss John Grisham’s new book, THE EXCHANGE: AFTER THE FIRM!

Love it!!!

I Love this book!!! I listen to it a couple of times during the Christmas season. Sad to say that the movie is not that great but I totally recommend this book.

A HOLIDAY CLASSIC!

This is a book to read every Christmas. Just like 'A Christmas Carol', this book has become - just like the movie version based on this book- a Christmas tradition!
