(125) Holly's inbox: Scandal in the City by Holly Denham

Monday, August 16, 2010


I first met Holly Denham in the first book, Holly's Inbox. It was a hilarious look at office life in London, told exclusively through emails between Holly, her coworkers, her friends, and her family.

Well, Holly is back. In Holly's Inbox: Scandal in the City Holly has a boyfriend, Toby, and she has been promoted to Manager with just a month to prove herself. Some of the same old characters show up, including Trish, Jason, that rascal Will, and some new ones show up. Including the despicable Tanya, who is out to destroy Holly and keep her from hanging on to her promotion. Holly is working hard and making progress with the Reception area when she learns some shocking news which may jeopardize everything.

I have mentioned it before, so it is not shocking news to you I am sure, but I love books set in the UK. Holly is a fun character and her friends are hysterical. Just like the first book, Scandal In The City, has 500+ pages, but because the entire book is written in email form, it reads very fast.

It is not really necessary to read the first book, before reading this book, but it gives you a good idea of Holly's history with the company and her boyfriend. Both are fairly fast reads and a great way to pass an afternoon!
