I saw Kathy Lette interviewed on TV a few weeks ago and can remember thinking what an exhausting (and irritating) dinner guest she'd be with the constant, and I mean constant, attempts at joke cracking. She was like a poor man's Joan Rivers...
Anyhoo, I've read all her previous work and have usually enjoyed her witty, full on approach to life when on paper so was looking forward to her latest offering.
And it started out ok. I liked the plot and the central character, Lucy, is whole and likeable - she's drowning in her own self-pity (and alcohol) after her husband walks out - and needs the help of a few new friends to put some meaning back in to her tattered life.
Unfortunately, the one-liners were thick and fast. So thick ... Read More:

It is terrible. Filled with cliche, predictable and a general waste of time. It is light enough to read during sex, at least if you are the lead character in the book.

To begin with I wasn't sure what I thought about this book. It's true that I found this book surprisingly easy to read, despite the fact that Kathy Lette sometimes tries a little too hard to be funny and the metaphors are constantly a little too drawn out and rambling.

I realise this book is entirely fictional, but even so, there were a couple of things that strained against the bonds of even my reality. For example:

1. If you had a husband like Hugo McPhee you would, unequivocally, divorce him, no questions asked, no second thoughts, you just would, not opt for every type of plastic surgery under the sun to try and win him back;
2. If someone spoke to you like Lizzie McPhee's nemesis, Britney ... Read More:

I can't believe this got published!

The main character 'Shelly' is utterly unlikable, the relationship between her and 'Kit' ridiculous (not to spoil the "plot" but they end up together DESPITE only spending a week tgether and arguing everytime they see each other. The plot itself is ridiculous, becoming more and more far fetched as the book goes on.

The sex scenes are completely cringeworthy; as are many of the descriptive metophores used throughout the book. Don't even bother. The only thing this book offers is an example of how NOT to do chick lit.

I bought this for my mum when she was going on holiday and she loved it so much that I had a read as well. There is a good mix of stories - some make you laugh and other's tug on the heartstrings. I loved the retro feel to the jacket and have it facing out on my book shelf!

This book is the jewel Kathy Lette's canon - all her other work seem seems tame and rather dull by comparison.

This is essentially a collection of short stories told by Australian women. It is crude, lewd and often downright rude but it is but always funny. Anybody with delicate sensibilities should probably not read this - everybody else should.

Sad, scary and readable. Give it to your ten-year-old daughter and tell her to talk to you before she contemplates doing any of these things, then give her a copy of Saving Ophelia.

I do try & hold in my guffaws whilst out in public but it was impossible to hold them in reading this book.

This had me laughing from beginning to end.

Books : Mad Cows

Mad Cows


by: Kathy Lette
June 20, 1997


Terrible, unbelievable fiction littered with cheap jokes. If you want a funny book there are much better ones out there...look at Marian Keyes or the new Alison Kervin book called Wag's Diary. The jokes in here were Christmas Cracker style and they got in the way of the story - they never emerged from it or because of it. RUBBISH!!!!
