Why not read a book written entirely in them? That's what i told myself anyway, i was in a bit of a book-buying craze when i saw this on the shelf.

Well you can't miss it can you? Purple and a massive fluorescent 'E' on it, it pulls your hand toward it. i read a little bit in the shop, and i wasn't too taken with it, the writing seemed flat and dull. But it was in tesco, and it was only £3.84. So i thought "Why not?"

i didn't regret it, it's the story of a fictional advertising company - Millershanks. Populated by huge egos, and backstabbing office politic types. The fact that it is told through each persons personal emails you get to form an image of the type of person they are, and it becomes quite fascinating... As well as very amusing.

One of those books that i read in a few days, having to force myself to put it down to eat and sleep, i just had to know what happened next.

A funny, gossipy, slang, more funny book.
Well worth it,
he released a small follow up for christmas last year (much appreciated by me).. not quite as good, only small, but a decent fix. i just want MORE!
