Lincoln's job is to read people's emails. But, only emails that get flagged to him because they contain a word that appears on a list. His job is to check whether the content of the flagged email requires him to follow up with a warning to the sender, to ensure that company policies are followed when it comes to communication via email and the use of the internet during office hours. Beth writes a lot of personal emails to her colleague Jennifer. They talk about their personal lives, their ups, their downs. Their messages get flagged a lot. But Lincoln doesn't have the heart to issue them with warnings. The contents are harmless, and truth be told, he's enjoying reading these emails... maybe a little too much.

Ok, this is another chicklit to add to my list. I enjoyed this one more than I did some of the other chicklit I've already read this year. Once again, the ending was a bit too easy, but this book wasn't as nearly as infuriating as some of the chicklit I've read before (see my review of Going Dutch). And this book is seen through the eyes of a guy, rather than a girl, which is a refreshing change too.
