She did it once again. Poetic, but not cheesy, Landline is the first time Rainbow Rowell adventures herself into the adult couples in crisis universe, and brilliantly. At first i thought I knew what Was going to happen and was a bit disappointed, and as the story progressed I saw the error of my ways: even if it was predictable, she would have made it worthwhile.
Georgie is a series writer on the verge of a career break - and a break up from her 15 year husband as a consequence.
Everything else is a lovely and sweet and real and poweful - with the right amount of crazy, represented by a yellow phone that transports her to a past when she was led by certainties more often than not.
If you are still waiting, I haven't done a good job, so I'll sum it up: she rocks, as usual.
