I've lost it. The only thing in the world I wasn't supposed to lose. My engagement ring. It's been in Magnus's family for three generations. And now, the very same day his parents are coming, I've lost it. The very same day. Do not hyperventilate Poppy. Stay positive!!
Poppy Wyatt has never felt luckier. She is about to marry the ideal man, Magnus Tavish, but in one afternoon her 'happy ever after' begins to fall apart. Not only has she lost her engagement ring but in the panic that followed, she has now lost her phone. As she paces shakily round the hotel foyer she spots an abandoned phone in a bin. Finders keepers! Now she can leave a number for the hotel to contact her when they find her ring. Perfect!
Well, perfect except the phone's owner, businessman Sam Roxton doesn't agree. He wants his phone back and doesn't appreciate Poppy reading all his messages and wading into his personal life.
What ensues is a hilarious and unpredictable turn of events as Poppy and Sam increasingly upend each other's lives through emails and text messages. As Poppy juggles wedding preparations, mysterious phone calls and hiding her left hand from Magnus and his parents... she soon realises that she is in for the biggest surprise of her life.

Review:
One of my new favorites by Sophie Kinsella, I've Got Your Number was full of great humor and even some of the romantic scenes ever! I fell in love with each of the characters, Poppy was such a good person and with her flaws is one that you can relate to. I loved Sam, because despite bringing the comments about Poppy he really got to be one of her best friends and in the end I was happy because it was a great scene. Its one of those books that will leave you wanting more from the story and the ending was done beautifully and I was totally waiting for it to happen! Rings can bring people together!!
The Story: What I liked most was the story lines because it was unique and it had one of Kinsella best humors in it! I have read many books by this author and this one has to be my favorite of all time because I was emotional at some parts with the end and the story with Poppy and Magnus were an interesting couple but as the reader sees, he is more like a child in a way, and that he loves her. As the story does go on it was an up and down emotional ride for me because I just wanted Poppy and Sam together!!! Sam is a really overall great character because Poppy really helps him and they discover this relationship through their cell phones and it can grow into something more.
This book is a definite read because it will leave you wanting more of Kinsella work because she does not disappoint in her novels. Her work is addictive as well as the characters because some people can relate to them. The characters will leave you laughing for more as well as the emotional aspect because despite the waiting it will be worth it! Be sure to pick this book up because you will not be disappointed!! Overall one of the best!! I want a Sam!!
I absolutely love Sophie Kinsella books! They are always so cute and funny. This definitely sounds awesome and like all her other ones. I can't wait to read it. Thanks for the great review!!
ReplyDeletePoppy Wyatt’s day is really going badly. She has lost the antique betrothal ring her fiancé Magnus gave her and her phone has been stolen. She thinks her luck has changed when she finds a perfectly good phone stuck in the waste bin and so she confiscates it. The phone rings, she answers it pretending to be an automated reply, listens to a cryptic message, and writes it down on an old Lion King program.
