I downloaded "The Office Idiot Reviews" when it was free for Kindle, and I'm happy I've had the opportunity to read it. I think the layout of the book - getting to know all the employees at Hogsbottom Plugs by means of product reviews - is an excellent idea. I haven't come across anything like it before. About halfway through the book I started to recognize certain character traits of each employee, and I had fun challenging myself at the start of each chapter in guessing which employee is reviewing which product. Although I found it entertaining matching a product to a reviewer, the "humor" wasn't really my taste. Some would enjoy it, others won't, and I guess for this book that would put me in the "others" category. Some of the employees' antics elicited a chuckle from me once or twice, but overall it didn't tickle my fancy. It does make for a quick, lazy-afternoon read, and it entertained me enough to finish it.
