This was a weird book. It chronicles the 25 days of advent leading up to Christmas but a lot of it was disjointed.. I didn't really get it. The centre plot revolved around John and his family who, after finding out they are going to lose their home, move in with an elderly uncle just before Christmas. The uncle is a disgrace, he is filthy, dirty and keeps his house like a bomb site. They attempt to find decent lives for themselves but nothing seems to work. The book started off okay but by the middle I was a bit bored... sorry.
