christmas has gotten so far from its religious roots, wish we could celebrate our holidays like medieval christians (cross-dressing, being told by the bishop to stop cross-dressing, resolutely refusing to stop cross-dressing, threatening the bishop in defense of cross-dressing)

The Circus Christmas party in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
What's a fictional holiday party you would love to attend?
My answers:
--the Christmas party from Fanny and Alexander
--the Yule feast in Nicola Griffith's Hild
--the Baileys' "welcome home" party for Harry in It's a Wonderful Life
--the office party in Die Hard; I'm sure nothing will go wrong

I truly feel that the only good book reviewers out there these days are those who have been immersed in fanfic at some point or another because the ones who haven't are like uncontacted peoples being exposed to smallpox, they don't know what it is that's making them sick
