Journal Entry 1 by ekgv414 from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA on Tuesday, January 06, 2004

A story told entirely through inter-office emails. I couldn't put it down, and neither could several initially-skeptical friends. 

Journal Entry 2 by ekgv414 from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA on Tuesday, March 09, 2004

Sending this out today to veruca in Austin. I'm actually kinda sad to let this one go. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did! 

Journal Entry 3 by veruca from Austin, Texas USA on Sunday, March 21, 2004

Thanks! I hope to get to this soon...it sounds great! 

Journal Entry 4 by veruca from Austin, Texas USA on Saturday, April 10, 2004

An entertaining and interesting read! I started reading it on the plane on the way back from my honeymoon (in France!), and it certainly made the 9 hours fly by.

I'm sending this to grover3d. Enjoy! 

Journal Entry 6 by grover3d from Charleston, West Virginia USA on Thursday, June 03, 2004

What a wonderful surprise! I LOVE books written as e-mail or letters and I can't wait to get to this one. Thanks so much for sharing it with me - you're the best! 

Journal Entry 7 by grover3d from Charleston, West Virginia USA on Sunday, August 15, 2004

Such a great surprise, made better by the fact that I really enjoyed the book. As I mentioned, I love books that are in the form of letters or e-mails, and I found this one to be especially well done - very witty and interesting and a great look into the world of corporate advertising. I want to keep this one going, so I'll offer it up on the BookRelay site or in the Book Wish List forum. Thanks so much! 

Journal Entry 8 by MarahSulloy from Regensburg, Bayern Germany on Saturday, October 02, 2004

Just got this in the mail today. Thanks grover3d! 

Journal Entry 9 by cliff1976 from Regensburg, Bayern Germany on Sunday, October 03, 2004

Cute. Sounds a lot like the marketing firm which employs a good friend of ours. This was a pleasant way to burn a couple hours last night and a couple more this morning. I imagine MarahSulloy'll want to read it next. 

Journal Entry 10 by MarahSulloy from Regensburg, Bayern Germany on Monday, October 11, 2004

This is a very light book, but very funny and enjoyable. Like Cliff said, this is what I imagine our friend's workplace to be. If you're an e-mail addict, you'll like this.

Journal Entry 12 by LaughAtlantis from San Francisco, California USA on Sunday, October 31, 2004

Received yesterday - really looking to reading this! Thank you so much.

Ah! cliff! That's why I was so confused! It got stuck through my mail slot in a plastic bag. I couldn't figure out how it had gotten from Germany to me in a clear plastic bag without my address on it. (That's quite a challenge for the postal service.) Thanks again.

RELEASE NOTES:

I read this in just a day and really loved it. I'd read Matt Beaumont's "the book, the film, the t-shirt" and had high hopes for this book. They were certainly fulfilled! It was a quick read that made me laugh a lot.

I will be passing this along to FamFatale as an RABCK. Enjoy!

Journal Entry 22 by Jebbie74 from Oshawa, Ontario Canada on Friday, April 21, 2006

I was about to mention that I am drooling over the receipt of this book....but from the appearance I think someone already has! LOL I'm very excited to read this one as it was on my wishlist forever and have heard such wonderful things about it.

Thanks sand :) 

Journal Entry 23 by Jebbie74 from Oshawa, Ontario Canada on Thursday, June 01, 2006

I really really really really loved this! Having worked in an ad agency before, some of the things they came up with in e-mails reminded me so much of that time (not that you could pay me to go back there!)

I read this in one sitting and quickly went to find the second book that came along with it.

Journal Entry 25 by zzz from Rakovica, City of Belgrade Serbia on Wednesday, July 12, 2006

I received this one as a part of BallySwappers group (I’m Mr. June). Also in the parcel was Beaumont’s other book The e Before Christmas so I guess I’m having chance to get full picture about him.
This author is totally new for me and I really don’t have any previous idea about this ... um... novel (?). Yeah, the form is quite unique and it does look interesting so I’m sure this’ll be memorable experience
Jebbie thank you so much for introducing me this new author and this new form of writing :-)
