A novel about how comedy unites and divides us, from the award-winning author of The Shiny Guys and The Life of a Teenage Body-Snatcher.


Have you heard the one about the guy who lost a grandfather, but found a girlfriend? It's funny. It's also kind of sad. And some of the bits that are sad are also kind of funny (but only if you laugh at that sort of thing).

Adam thinks Samantha could be the one for him. But first he has to sort out his parents' crumbling marriage, stop getting into embarrassing situations involving public nudity, find out what's making his gran so angry, stop his little brother doing something really, really dangerous and work out what's so funny about two tigers on a beach. It can't be that hard, can it?

A novel about how comedy unites and divides us, from the award-winning author of The Shiny Guys and The Life of a Teenage Body-Snatcher.

After finishing Tigers on the Beach I've got some mixed emotions. I've never read any of the author's previous books, so I have nothing to compare this to, but from what I gather it was meant to have some comedy. Although I got some of this in the novel, and it was able to deal with some deeper topics with a funny twist, in the end I think it could have been executed a little better with some more detail. While the plot and family relationships were explained well, and the little bit of romance explored the awkwardness of teenage relationships. After finishing this, I can see what the author was trying to achieve in writing this book, and I may try again reading one of his other books written in the same style to see how that compares.
