The Stupidest Angel: A Heartwarming Tale of Christmas Terror by Christopher Moore
The Stupidest Angel is Archangel Raziel, an angel who gets a special assignment: He gets to grant one child a very special Christmas miracle. Only Raziel isn't the brightest angel in Heaven (he is a blonde after all) and he manages to mess up the miracle.
An easy read (I was done in 2 hours), this book is funny and entertaining. It's not your typical Christmas Miracle story. In fact, it's far from it.
Christopher Moore uses several characters from his other books and puts them all into one setting for this Holiday horror story but you don't need to have read those books in order to understand this one.
My only problem with this book is that some of the characters are a bit too kooky and their oddities take away from the story a bit.
