Book Overview

The Tall Poppies--a few days ago, they were just another Aussie band watching their fame ebb faster than a nitrous high. Then Stuart, the drummer, is gunned down by Australian drug lords, and the band is suddenly news in Australia, America, and even on CNN. Rachel, a chatty twenty-seven-year-old New Yorker, is the band's housemate. She digs Colin, the bassist, who has commitment issues. After witnessing the murder, she flees to the safety of family...

an unexpected pleasure

I first picked up this book because it had an interesting title. On a pure whim I read it and enjoyed it more than I have any book in years. It was refreshingly funny yet it has substance that kept me interested. I couldn't put it down. I have told everyone I know that enjoys reading to get this book. It is sharp,funny and a sure cult classic.

hilarious fun

I got this book fro the holidays from my girlfriend. It's a book that I think would appeal to men and women, especially those with an urban humor.I hope it is going to be made into a movie. The book would translate well. Reading the novel is especially rewarding too. You get the sense Laurie Gwen Shapiro is a great wit to watch

Not for everyone, but I loved it

Only if you want to laugh for a week. Don't give this to your grandmother, save it for yourself if you're the type that liked Spinal Tap. Raunchy and very very droll.

Edgy, funny, worth the bucks

I'd read a intelligent, sassy interview with this new author before purchasing the book. My hunch was rewarded. This novel is fresh and furiously funny. Shapiro's characters are acerbic yet endearing and never cartoonish. Edgy. Something different.
