Gimme a Call
I just finished reading one of the best books ever! It was written by Sarah Mlykowski, who is also the author of Bras and Broomsticks. A lot of people have recommend this book to me, so I figured I would give it a try. I read it in two hours, it is one of those books you can't put down. In the beginning of the story the senior in high school Devi, the main character, drops her phone in the fountain at the mall. When she retrieves it she realizes that the only person she can call is her freshman self. She finally has one chance to fix all of her problems, especially going out with Bryan. She tells her younger self to not go out with him and to spend more time studying. When younger Devi does that older Devi suddenly has no friends because for the past four years she has been blowing them off to study. Then the two Devis are stuck calling each other to find the perfect balance for their life, until the phone dies demolishing the link between them. I really liked this book because it was funny and surprisingly not that confusing with all the back and forth through time. I think anyone will love this book, especially if they liked Sarah Mlynowski's other series, Magic in Manhattan.

ReplyDeleteLauren this is a great book, I'm glad you read it. I agree with you it's surprisingly not confusing. You did a great job of explaining this. I can't believe that you read it in two hours though, that's really short. Great job lauren!!!
