Landline by Rainbow Rowell - Review

Thursday, 5 February 2015

Hello Book Lovers!!!

I have finished Landline in 3 sittings (it would have been two but I had to go to uni -_-). I loved this book and once again Rainbow Rowell's writing was just so funny. One of the best elements for me was the amount of references to different films and books she had in there. For example, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Disney, Star Wars, and probably lots more :) 

The synopsis of the novel is based around a lady called Georgie who is married and has 2 children. Unfortunately her job is going to stop her from spending time with her family this Christmas, she has to stay at home, and her husband Neal and children go to Neal's mums house.

During this time Georgie discovers an old yellow phone in her old room in her mums house and tries to ring Neal from it only to find out that this phone allows her to talk to Neal from before they got married and had children. Even before Neal's dad passed away. 

This makes Georgie think about whether she made the right decision marrying Neal or was there someone else she was meant to spend the rest of her life with?

This novel had me hooked throughout and the characters personalities were very well developed. The way in which Rainbow Rowell writes dialogue is always fantastic and I can't wait for her next novel to reach the shelves!!!

Happy Reading!!!
