Texts From Last Night: The Book
My copy of the TFLN book showed up on Friday so I had a full weekend to give it a pretty thorough look-over. While it isn’t best suited for long car rides or casual reading, it is definitely the consummate coffee table or “the basket next to the toilet” book.
The website and the book capture the thoughts of the texting generation, ranging from drunken introspective genius to all out toolish jackassery. That being said, it’s an easy read that requires no mental commitment whatsoever, which also happens to be one of its more endearing qualities (much like this blog).
Simply put, if you’re a fan of the site, you’ll like the book.
The Texts From Last Night book comes out January 26th. To pre-order, click here. It’ll be $15.
