Festivus: The Holiday for the Rest of Us Review
Allen Salkin is the most creative, quirky writer today. He takes Festivus and gives us a super clean, fun holiday that "the rest of us" can enjoy. Particularly if you can't stand the holidays, you can turn to Festivus - it's like group therapy for holiday nay-sayers. But I love Salkin's writing and follow his work closely. I suggest you dig into this fantastic piece of work, and by the way, it's a GREAT stocking stuffer too!!
Festivus: The Holiday for the Rest of Us Overview
In one of the most memorable episodes of Seinfeld ever, Frank Costanza (Jerry Stiller) revealed some of the rituals of a Festivus celebration: a bare aluminum pole, a competition involving feats of strength, and of course, the traditional airing of the grievances. Transcending television to become a national phenomenon, thousands of people now celebrate Festivuspartly to thumb their noses at the commercialism of the holiday season, but really because Festivus is downright fun! In this terrific, tongue-in-cheek guide, current and aspiring celebrants will learn: how to make their own Festivus pole (hint: tinsel is forbidden); creative ideas for feats of strength competitions; delicious Festivus recipes; hilarious songs; and so much more.

I wish I could give this book 0 stars - christopher masse - dracut, ma United States
This is the worst book I have ever read. It tries to be funny and somewhat informative but fails miserably on both counts. It takes less than an hour to read. It seems as if it were written in about that amount of time.If the author has any decency he would refund my money.
Good Service - R. Morrison - Park Forest, IL
I placed my order and it arrived in a few days. This book was purchased for a Christmas present and the recipient thought it was great. Great service!!
Not funny - Jax - Boston, MA
Wow, did Allen Salkin get lucky. He must be related to Jerry Stiller or something. From his writing, I'd say that JS's involvement is the only reason he got a book deal.
This book reads like a 9th grade term paper-- and a poor one at that.
What a lame book!
