Very clever and funny. Original story, the author executed it well. I liked flipping between the Council notices and regular letters to find where exactly they used forbidden letters. It was fun to see how much I missed, and how easy it was to miss. It did get a bit confusing near the end as more letters fell. I had to reread sentences multiple times to understand what they were saying, but all in all it was an enjoyable read.
