About the Author
Kathy Lette divides her time between being a full time writer, demented mother (now there's a tautology) and trying to find a shopping trolley that doesn't have a clubbed wheel. Kathy first achieved succes de scandale as a teenager with the novel Puberty Blues, now a major motion picture. After several years as a singer with the Salami Sisters and a newspaper columnist in Sydney and New York (collected in the book Hit and Ms) and as a television sitcom writer for Columbia Pictures in Los Angeles, her novels, Puberty Blues (1979) Girls Night Out (1988), The Llama Parlour (1991), Foetal Attraction (1993), Mad Cows (1996), Altar Ego (1988), Nip'n'Tuck (2001), Dead Sexy (2003) and How To Kill Your Husband (and other handy household hints) (2006) became international best-sellers. Kathy Lette's plays include Grommits, Wet Dreams, Perfect Mismatch and I'm So Happy For You I Really Am. She lives in London with her husband and two children and has just finished a stint as writer in Residence at London's Savoy Hotel.

I had high hopes for this book, but I found myself waiting for the story to start pretty much until the end when I realised it wasn't going to.
I read a lot of comedies, but I didn't raise a smile once reading this. I found it a pointless waste of my time!

Kathy Lette is a fabulous writer and this is her best book by far. I have reread it many times and still find it absolutely hilarious. I would advise everyone to read this book especially if they want a good laugh.

I did not enjoy this book as much as Altar Ego and Foetal Attraction. I found it disjointed, thick with dialogue and disappointing. I started this book with great anticipation as it seemed captivating and finished it feeling very let down. If the writer were to rewrite this book and flesh it out a bit more it would be perfect.
