If you think that twitter is just a place to announce that you've had another cup of coffee or to declare your love for Justin Bieber (no, I don't know who he is either), then think again: this wonderful anthology is a collection of fiction and poetry written within the 140-character limit of a tweet.

A lot of the joy in both fiction and poetry comes from reading between the lines and discovering what hasn't been said explicitly. It's amazing how much back-story you can imply when you're show more limited to only 140 characters. You may find that a single tweet makes you think more than a 500-page novel.

I highly, highly recommend this book.

Disclaimer: I loved twitter before I read this book, but I think it's enough to make some twitter-sceptics think again!
