Journal Entry 1 by Vroomfondel from Shipley, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, March 28, 2006

"Blackstock Tyres want to advertise their product on TV. They employ an agency with a reputation for innovation and creativity - and the trouble begins. The director's an auteur, the extras think they're in an art movie, the client keeps changing the script and the stars can't stand each other."
After about 40 pages, I realised two things. 1) I'd already read this, and 2) This was written pretty much in the style of the two other Matt Beaumont books I'd read ('e', and 'The e Before Christmas'), except this one isn't in email format. If this was the first book by this author I'd have read, I'd have probably given it 7 out of 10, but he lost one point due to lack of originality.
Although the name of the ad agency was very funny.
Updated 4 April: Taken to tonight's Hull and East Riding Bookcrossing Meet.
