Lots of fun - and a nice way to commiserate with a fellow gardener (though I'm no where near so fanatical or wealthy:)

Ergh. I don't care enough about my back yard or anyone else's back yard to read this book. If my book club wasn't reading this I would not have chosen it to read.

I really enjoyed this book. It reminded me of raising chickens and The $5 egg, lol!

I forgot that I read this book a few years ago during our community garden year. Quite comical.

Somewhere around 3.5 stars. It wasn't great but it has funny moments and the writing kept me engaged which is why I gave it 4 stars.

Very enjoyable! Kind of like Bill Bryson in a garden.
I'm not the least bit interesting in gardening so it's odd that I would read this book but the title just struck me funny so I picked it up at the library and read it in just a couple of days.
It's well written, funny, and it kind of makes me want to plant some tomatos next summer!

Loved it! Author recounts his experiences gardening in a delightfully funny manner, sharing some wisdom along the way. Funnier than a lot of the "humor" books on the market today, though you would have a hard time convincing someone of this based on its plot.

Fun to read, but the tomatoes I grow do NOT cost that much!
