This is a pretty fun, B-movie style Christmas horror story. Even though it focuses on the adults, it could also be a good YA read. There's not much graphic gore or violence and the children play a large role. 

I also really appreciate how the book handles the sacrifices and trust in marriage. The characters feel real and, even when they're making bad decisions, it's easy to understand why they're making them.
