WOOF!
Out of print. No longer available.
This barking mad, adults-only comedy is set in Manchester. The year is 1992. This, friends, is the north of England from the perspective of youth: wild, free and mashed on E. WOOF! revolves around Peter and his friends Derek, Kate, Sophia and Fatima. They're putting on a play for the course they're doing at the polytechnic. Only, the playwright thinks it's quite probably the worst student play ever. And there have been some stinkers. He's working with a chain-smoking gothic diva, a perpetual stoner, a director who likes Elaine Paige and a nymphomaniac, polyamorous self-harmer.
What could possibly go wrong?

Some amusing bits.
I wish I'd stuck pins in my eyes instead of reading this book. Not my cup of tea at all. Some quite amusing parts, but very shallow characters. As for the ending, well, I wish there had been an ending!

Truly the worst book I have ever read/ not finished. How can this ever have been published

Took it with me on holiday - was laughing out loud on the plane (even before i started drinking).
The books a bit different and is one of the funniest books I've read for a long time. Its also a good story, well-written. You certainly get a good feel for the main characters. I always have a soft spot for books set in places that I know (even though Manchester is on the wrong side of the pennines).
I would recommend it to most people (except perhaps my mother).

This book introduces you to four main characters, I'm not sure i liked any of them but related to all of them. You travel with them laugh at them and sometime even feel sorry for them. It set in Manchester in the early 90s but could be any town with a polytechnic/university, and they are the misfits who band together to form a friendship .

I'm not one to write reviews but this is without doubt the funniest book I've read in a long time! Its a rare thing for me to laugh out loud to a book but with Woof! I laughed until it hurt. My only regret is that it spent months on my Kindle waiting to be read......
