Gimme a Call has been staring at me from my bookshelf for quite some time. I bought it because I loved Ten Things We Did and because that’s probably one of my favorite covers ever. So when I found myself in the mood for something fun and fast I knew I had to pick up Gimme a Call. It did not disappoint.

Devi’s heart is broken and she wishes that she could go back in time and make different decisions. After a clumsy accident involving a cell phone and a mall fountain Devi’s phone will only call herself, from freshman year. I love, love, love this concept. Who wouldn’t love to talk to the you from 3 years ago. Wouldn’t you be so tempted to change some things? Maybe just a tiny bit? That’s pretty much the theme of Gimme a Call. Except things don’t work out exactly as planned, of course.

The chapters in Gimme a Call alternate between Freshman Devi and Senior Devi. That might sound like it would get confusing but it never was. They each had a clear voice while still maintaining the same personality. Oddly, I did like Freshman Devi better even though they were the same person. Freshman Devi just seemed a little easier to relate to. Senior Devi was pretty uptight. They were both great in an accident waiting to happen kind of way. They made the worst decisions but it was so fun to watch it all unfold.

If you’re looking for something super fun and entertaining, I definitely recommend Gimme a Call.
