Emailing Allie - Julie Lawson

Emailing AllieEmailing Allie by Julie Lawson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

As a new year dawns, Allie needs various questions answered. Among the most urgent are: Where is her future leading? Why are relationships so complex and confusing? Can she get through a day without five cups of tea? Hilarious, touching and unique, Emailing Allie delves into the life and loves of 31-year-old Allie Rainsbury. Through emails sent to her best-friend Julie, the smooth-talking David Marshall and the enigmatic Scott Cooper (to mention but a few) we are taken on an frenetic, funny and uplifting journey that charts her daily challenges both inside and outside the office.
I bought this book as I enjoy email books, I loved Holly's Inbox and this reminded me of that. This is based on Allie, she has left the company and her emails are discovered. Although there are a lot of pages, it is quick to read.

I did not find it as funny as Holly's Inbox, which I did expect it was going to be, I did enjoy it though.

Unfortunately as it is a book based on purely emials it is hard to get to know the characters so opinions on them I'm afraid I don't have.

I would say I think it is worth reading, especially if you enjoy email books.
