This very familiar imagery automatically makes you think of an office environment. From finding out what I can about this novel, I can't think of a much more appropriate way to communicate the story's plot. The book's centre is a Chicago ad agency at a time when the industry was undergoing massive change into the digital era and job losses were following as a result. One book review picked up that it was created in a similar style to the office, it drew you into the lives of fictional characters, but ones that you could actually see alot of people you knew reflected within. Although the post it note style has been used a lot in the past, I have not seen it so frequently on book covers. On top of this from what I have read it is a very suitable way to set the tone of the book which is ultimately what the cover sets out to do.
