Utterly bonkers
This book was the best kind of deranged. Funny, sexy, and super compelling. By the end you find yourself wondering if there really is something erotic about air travel. If you're after a quick and hilarious fairly light read, I can't recommend this book highly enough.

Sky Daddy
Weird, wonky and obsessively well researched; never has anthropomorphic personification been so strangely funny. The writing veers from mundane to bizarrely esoteric without warning. It's odd but good.
