By Rosalie Ham. (A Bookclub Book). I was familiar with this book from the movie trailers (I haven't seen the move), so I was expecting a quirky comedy. It was certainly quirky and I guess it was a comedy, but it's a pretty dark book, with very few sympathetic characters, and an ending that felt like a farce. There's no doubt that Ham's characters are unique. Her Australian town is not a typical Aussie town (or maybe it is?? perhaps I should say it's not *stereotypical*), but was it an enjoyable read? I'm not sure...
(No picture as it was a library book that has gone back to the library!!)
