E books I have read - Quantum Of Tweed: The Man With The Nissan Micra

The title made me smile and the blurb made this a must buy.

A James Bond pastiche in a very British style, I honestly thought I was going to laugh my socks off when I bought it, but in the end I didn't. What I did do was a smile a lot and that's certainly not something to be sneezed at. Of course, if you don't remember who Bonnie Tyler is then a lot of the humour here is going to be wasted on you.

It's short and the ending felt far too rushed as though trying to come in under a word count or something, but I've had less fun with longer books also marketed as funny.

Moderate your expectations and you'll have a good (short) time.
