Front cover is different from the one shown.

Not bad. It's the type of book that makes you think, oh that's funny without actually making you laugh.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

I was a bit confused by this book, because the chapters seemed so disjointed from each other, especially "The Best Possible Light", which didn't seem to fit into the story at all. But then I happened to look at the publication details page and realised that although the back cover blurb implies it is a novel, most of the chapters were previously published as short stories. And it looks like she wrote "The Worst Thing a Suburban Girl Could Imagine" to tie together some of the other stories.

Anyway, it all made a lot more sense, and I enjoyed it a lot more, once I read it as a book of short stories instead of as a novel.

Picked up at todays brunch meetup.

Starting this book tonight. (Tuesday 8)

Finished this on Friday night. (11 March)
I normally like short stories but I didn't really enjoy this book.
Often jumping forwards in time in a hurry, people whom I didn't know who they were, bit confusing.

Left on a seat in Cuba Street during the Wellington UnConvention, November 2011.

found it on a park bench in wellys. lovely find. the poem at the front was nice, the book a bit confusing but a nice surprise
