Review: A Record of Online Romantic Correspondance...
Rating: 2 out of 5

When the author inquires about leaving e-Bay Feedback for her purchase from Mr. Fisher, they begin to converse online. In talking about their families (he lives with his mother), movies they like (a favorite of his: Top Gun), going out to the pubs with friends, etc. etc. they get to know each other. They eventually exchange e-photos, Ms. Fisher thought there was something incredibly attractive about him, he wanted to know her dress size. Eventually they start talking on the phone, their sleepy late night conversations, though they haven't met, become sexually explicit.This was mostly a written record of e-mail and phone conversations. I wouldn't consider this a memoir because of the overall format/layout, and lack of story line. It was tiresome to constantly click to the next page. I can always find a cultural difference or experience I like between the U.S. and the U.K. in the books I've read before, not so much with this. Even skipping chapters didn't help, the dialogue was predictable, uneventful, and just not interesting enough to hold my attention. Perhaps the sequel the author is planning to write will be better.Many thanks to Amazon for the Kindle review copy.
