I finished reading my latest book on the way home this morning from my day job. A friend let me borrow Join Me before I left on holiday.
This was an entertaining and interesting read. It's all about a guy in Britian who gets bored one day, posts a classified saying "Join Me, please send a passport photo to .... ". And people respond. Over the course of the book, he gets 1,000 people to join with him, even though there is no defined purpose for this group/cult/collective.
The book is written with lots of Briticisms. I can see how it might be a bit off putting for some people, particularly if you don't know what "crisps" are (just as an example). While the book is hardly an "I-couldn't-put-it-down" kind of book, it's a nice lightweight read.
