Format: Book
In the latest from Sophie Kinsella, Poppy Wyatt has a problem: she lost her engagement ring, a ring that belongs to her fiance’s family. To make matters worse, someone steals her cell phone. While panicking, she happens to see a cell phone in a trash can. Out of desperation, she takes the cell phone and claims it as her own. She soon learns that the cell phone’s owner used to work for businessman Sam Roxton, and he is not very happy that Poppy has laid claim to the company’s cell phone. Poppy and Sam work out a temporary agreement in regards to the phone use, which leads to impossible situations involving the two of them. As the novel progresses, Poppy learns a lot about herself and the people around her and becomes to see her life in a different way.
Once again, Kinsella writes a hilarious, light book perfect for a vacation read or a weekend escape from reality. I started reading Kinsella years ago, with her Shopaholic series; she is one of my go-to authors for something quick and fun to read. The characters come to life, and I can envision the whole scene playing out while I read. For I’ve Got Your Number, there were times I laughed out loud – Poppy gets herself into some pretty funny situations. Chick lit lovers should try out this one.
And, for those who cannot get enough of Sophie Kinsella: she also writes under the name Madeleine Wickham. These books are just as fun to read!
