Gimme A Call was a fun, well-written book about Devi, a senior in high-school who is given a chance to communicate with her freshman self after a recent breakup with her high-school boyfriend.

I really liked the premise of the book; I think we all have things we would like to tell our younger selves, and seeing how that affected Devi's life was really interesting to see. There are two distinct main characters - Senior Devi and Freshman Devi. For at least the first half of the book I found Senior Devi to be very pushy and annoying. She is understandably worried about how her younger self 'messes up' her life, but she doesn't need to be so mean about it. And lying to yourself? Never a good idea. I found Freshman Devi much more relatable. She was suspicious of Senior Devi at first, suspecting a prank, and balked at some of Senior Devi's seemingly ridiculous commands. However, as things changed in Senior Devi's life, she showed some admirable character traits. She would give up everything to keep her family together, and worked on mending relationships between herself and others in her family. Her loyalty and love of her family were what kept me from stopping the book for the first half; then as she started learning to let go and not be such a control freak, she became much more interesting.

The plot was very well-developed. The book moved at a fast pace, and never got boring (which is impressive, as I quickly get tired of audiobooks; the only others that have successfully kept my interest are the Hunger Games series). There were a few surprising plot twists, and the fact that Devi's world was continually changing was exciting.

Some of the time-travel elements were not clearly explained, I think because Devi herself didn't know how most of the time-travel worked. I found it frustrating not to know how everything worked out, but the story was good enough to negate these annoyances.

Overall, I thought Gimme A Call was an interesting, fast-paced story with a bit more depth than I expected.
