Who Moved My Blackberry? Book

I picked up Kellaway's book since it seemed like a fun read for the summer. It's a very quick read, even though it's about 350 pages long. It's quick because the whole text is a series of email messages sent to and received by the main character, Martin Lukes. It's a novel, no pun intended, way of telling a first-person story. Martin starts off as the director of marketing for a multinational company and the narrative winds its way through the year, January to December. This seemingly personal approach shows us Martin's ego, vanity, and selfishness, echoed through his own dim-witted emails and the responses back to him. Many of you may have worked with or for a Martin in your careers, but this guy is really over the top. I didn't overly enjoy this book, but that might be partly due to my distaste for the main character, who was the only fully-drawn person in the novel. If you're interested in a unique way of telling a story, check this book out for its technical escapades. If you're in the mood for something else, give this book a second thought before picking it up.
