Just another Connie Willis book doing what Connie Willis does best: romantic comedy for the rest of us with some mixed in science fiction, comedy of errors and authority figures that don't listen. ( ) Aliens land on Earth and, instead of saying, "Taking me to your leader," or anal probing, they simply sit and glare like Aunt Judith. You'll figure it out before the main character does but it's fairly short (novella length) and has some moments of typical Willis humor, so give it a try if you enjoy that sort of thing. As per usual for Connie Willis, none of this book could possibly have happened if the characters talked to each other. Also, puzzle stories are more fun if the readers are given the clues before the characters have figured out the answer. Possibly she was afraid that her readers might have been smarter than her characters? Still, it's a nice light and fast read with cute ideas. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

The aliens have landed! But instead of shooting death rays, taking over the planet and carrying off Earthwomen, they've just been standing there for months on end, glaring like a disapproving relative. And now it's nearly Christmas, and the commission assigned to establish communications is at their wits' end. They've resorted to taking the aliens to Broncos games, lighting displays, and shopping malls, in the hope they'll respond to something! And they do, but in a way nobody ever expected, and Meg, the commission, and an overworked choir director find themselves suddenly caught up in an intergalactic mess involving Christmas carols, scented candles, seventh-grade girls, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Meg's Aunt Judith, Victoria's Secret, and Handel's Messiah.
