If the plot's good and the characters are people I'd like, then I'll read a holiday story, but I don't seek them out. Most of the stories I've read themed around this time of year are romances anyway, and my romance reading has really slacked off over the years. Give me somebody shooting something, blowing something up, cursing something or tearing something apart, I'm there. ;o)B.E.

(I'm coming from the PoV of children's movies, atm - and there's a big difference between say, It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown...and Santa Buddies. (God damn, I cannot stand these little golden retriever movies. And I have nearly all of them. But they're clearly not meant for me, so...*shrugs*) This didn't answer your question, I don't think, but two weeks before Xmas and I'm thick in the middle of the marketing deluge.
