Like many others watching a Christmas story is a Christmas must each year, so when I found out it was a book I knew I needed to read it.
A Christmas Story follows Ralphie like the movie does in the lead up to Christmas, however, this book follows him after and the majority of what happens in the movie happens after Christmas in this book.
After I got past that part of the story I enjoyed it and was able to separate the two a little bit from each other.
Overall the book was enjoyable and was pretty close to the movie besides things being out of order. I will say we get to see far more of the neighbors and why they were so frustrating to live next to. I can't wait for the holidays now and to be able to watch the movie again on Christmas eve.
