Man, there are some great bits in this one--the night in the abandoned church, Tony's arrival at Vicky's house, John's confession, Schmidt in a skin tight Santa outfit... It was nice to see Tony back again, and Dieter and Jan are interesting characters as well. I feel like Peters really hit her stride with the series in this book--it's much longer than the previous volumes, as well as much funnier and much more emotionally charged. Just, so so good! Even though I've read this...eight times now? It never gets old. Moving on to Night Train to Memphis now!
