Blurb: "Janet Drummond takes her medication[ ...]. Wade had spent the night in jail; suicidal Ben is due to arrive at any moment with his vowel-free girlfriend, Shw; and there is Sarah, 'a bolt of lightning frozen in midflash', here in Orlando to be the star of Friday's shuttle mission. Janets ex-husband and his trophy wife are also in town..."

Coupland's book is outlandish, funny, entertaining--and even the slightest bit tender. Just don't take it too seriously.

Jay! Caught it while I was at OBCZ Cafe Lef for two seconds on Sunday. Again, thanks a lot! Of course I already started reading it :)

What a family... read this book and you'll never thing your family is weird, ever again! A nice book, especially the last part was hilarious. Sometimes a bit too much "Couplandesque", like his writing style is some kind of formula. Off to TinyBear and thanks for sharing!

Just found it in my mailbox, going on the pile TBR :-)))

Ow, I've had much fun reading this book! In the end I just couldn't put it aside although it was pas my bedtime ;-))

Really enjoyed Mr. Couplands writing, what a family :-)) and am looking forward to reading more from his hand!

Now for the next bookcrosser, which is....Zoeking...I believe!
