I was hooked by the Shopaholic series, kinda reminded me of me, and its been a while since I picked up one of Kinsella's books. I actually loaned this from a friend after she was groaning at the 'footnotes' throughout the book. The story is obvious at points but a interesting and easy read and the footnotes aren't as bad as I thought, I actually found I missed many of them as I didn't notice the little numbers and it wasn't until I was at the end of the page that I saw them, by then I just kept reading and didn't look back at the numbers, its not like I felt I was missing anything special. All of Kinsella's books, to me, are similar and almost like its the same girl in each one (I guess its because I read the shopaholic books first and it set the path) but I can't help but be on each girls side and I cheer for them in the end through all life's up and downs.
A book of mobile phones, love, big companies, cheating, ice cream and tears that I found to be an easy read and a book that I did think about when not looking at its pages. Would this story happen in real life, finding a phone in a bin and being able to keep it? Sounds like it was meant to be...perhaps...
