Holly's Inbox by Holly Denham



Written entirely in the form of emails to and from Holly, who has just started work as a receptionist at a large London bank. Her colleagues are generally awful (apart from Jennie who Holly went to school with ... at least to begin with) and it's only the emails from her friends Jason and Aisha that are getting her through. Until she starts a flirtation with James, one of the company's Vice Presidents. A flirtation that will eventually change everything. (Duh duh duhhhh!)


Holly's Inbox is an extremely easy read, but a totally compelling one. Very little really happens - the plot-based emails are interspersed with the kind of emails most women working in offices get: horoscopes, offers of cheap flights, money-laundering requests from Nigerian princes - but Holly's voice is so real that I was just as happy reading about her struggles to get her broken washing machine collected by the manufacturer as I was to read about her weekend in Spain with James.


Well the idea to this book is really great ... The whole book is in a set of emails and is quite an easy read ... Holly is quite funny in parts and alot of the emails you could imagine yourself writing ... Especially the drama over the broken washing machine which I think every woman as been there ..... ( It is interesting to note that this book is written by a man )
If you want to take a quick look at the book without purchasing it you can go to the following website and read a few chapters ... Which is also in the form of emails ...


It is a quite a quirky idea and the book is funny in some parts but I found it wasn't the great phenomena that everyone was raving about ...
It is a cute wee read and would be a good holiday read just light and funny
I rate this book 3 ***
