Review: Loved this! Really awesome satire...

I think the author must have worked in some of the same office environments that I have (smirk)....she nailed this a little too well, and the whole play on HELL for the corporation name was brilliant. Not only was it really funny though, and the satire and comparisons to corporate life well done, but the character of Mel was really sympathetic and fun to read, and really ended up being the thing to make it more than just a running gag, but a full-on intro to a fun new world and series of stories. The author's world-building was done really well too, which can be difficult in a short piece, giving us just enough to know exactly what I needed to know without giving too much away or bogging the reader down in too much detail at the front end. It makes you want to know more about the character and world without being annoyed and/or frustrated.Perfect intro to a series, and a great teaser on what's to come...Looking forward to reading the next one!
