Gimme a Call

JJJJJ

My View:   I love this book! I semi-randomly chose it (bit of a Hail Mary) while at Barnes & Noble, even though the story sounded cheesy. Why? Because Jen Calonita had a recommendation on the back, and Libba Bray and Ally Carter were in the Acknowledgements.

I am so glad I trusted them.

It's perfect (and not cheesy despite feeling low-budget). Devi (at all ages) is an every-girl type of character, but she has an actual personality. Very relatable in many ways, especially when she's being an over-achiever. Definitely about to be placed reverently on my re-read shelf.

Movie?	No, but there's gotta be one! It's the type of book that some movie company will latch onto way too quickly and possibly ruin if rushed. But if done properly, I can see it becoming a classic!

Always,
