books sux, i like to watch it, instead of read it ;D
your lack of reading is evidenced in your superb grammatical and spelling skills.
I really like Chuck Palahniuk. I don't think he has anything that people would call festive or Christmas-y. I've also been reading a lot of Ken Follett and Michael Crichton between Palahniuk and (Dean) Koontz streaks.
John Grisham is a good author, and wrote Christmas with The Kranks...at least that movie is based off of one of his books. He has dozens of courtroom thrillers and other lawyer-type books, if you're into that kind of stuff.
